Amazon eBook reader unveiled: The Kindle

amazon kindle

The blog Engadget posted today a sneak preview of Amazon’s new eBook reader, called the Kindle. While nothing was mentioned in terms of price or launch, the blog has some product stats of the eReader, as well as some pictures. It looks a bit like the Japanese version of Sony’s eBook reader, the Librie. The keyboard is a nice touch if it’s going to be wireless and have an internet browser, but overall I think the recent wave of UMPC’s look a lot better.

    Without doubt the nastiest piece of product design for a decade or more….this is clearly designed to fail.

    What the heck is going on with this its ll over the place and looks like something designed by a child….awful.
