    The Guardian case from M-Edge is a life jacket for the Kindle

    Whenever I head to the community pool, I usually take a book to read. It works well to hide my wondering eyes, but also gives me something to look at when I would otherwise be ‘distracted’. Recently I have seen a few Kindles floating around at the pool, great idea, but I couldn’t see taking that expensive device any further than my front porch.

  • How has the exciting world of technology changed since the last World Cup? Let us count the ways!

    How has the exciting world of technology changed since the last World Cup? Let us count the ways!

    Posted on May 31, 2010 | No Comments
    A little birdie told me that the World Cup begins in just a few weeks, on June 11, 2010, in South Africa. Four years prior saw Italy lift the trophy in Germany, beating France on penalties. Zinedine Zidane also headbutted Marco Materazzi that day—an immense event in Internet history. A lot of things have changed since that day in Berlin, a lot of things that will shock and amaze you. For example, did you know that Facebook was still only open to college and high school students the moment Fabio Grosso smashed the ball past Fabien Barthez? So, what else has changed between then and now?

    Kindle application pre-installed on Asus laptops and netbooks

    Posted on May 24, 2010 | No Comments
    Notebook and netbook maker Asus is pre-installing the Amazon Kindle for PC application, allowing Asus owners to access Amazon's selection of e-books without having to suffer through the pain of software installation on their own time. Not much more to say about this, except that it further cements Amazon's hegemony in the e-book market. How will Barnes and Noble respond, I wonder?

    Kindle DX failing out of Darden Business School

    Posted on May 14, 2010 | No Comments
    According to Ars Technica, Darden Business School students are unhappy with the Amazon Kindle DX in terms of academic usefulness. That's not to say that they're down on the DX in general: there's pretty high support amongst Darden students for the DX as a personal e-reader. It's just not quite the classroom supplement that Darden administration had hoped it would be.

  • Nook passes Kindle sales in March

    Nook passes Kindle sales in March

    Posted on April 26, 2010 | No Comments
    Well look at this: new kid on the book, Barnes & Noble's Nook ereader, just surpassed Amazon Kindle sales in March. Obviously the Nook is a bit newer than the Kindle and those who were going to buy a Kindle probably have already, but it also looks like B&N's retail network is also driving sales. Digitimes reports that 53% of e-book readers shipped were Nooks while 1.43 million ereaders were sold in Q1 2010. They're estimating that total ereader sales will reach 11 million by year's end.

    Wanna read Kindle books on your iPad? Of course you do~! UPDATE

    All the Apple marks are excited about the iPad. Not me, but whatever. What I am excited about, though, is seeing consumers use the items they've bought in the manner of their choosing. Say you've bought a bunch of books from the Amazon Kindle store. (Don't tell Devin!) Those books are only "supposed" to work with the Kindle and the various Kindle readers, but with a bit of work you can read them wherever you want—yes, including on your iPad.

    Amazon is mighty proud of its Kindle. So much so that the retailer outed a press release proclaiming that the Kindle is the best selling device on Amazon.com and even pre-Cyber Monday, November was its best selling month so far. Nook what?

    Posted on November 19, 2009 | No Comments
    Intro We're only about five weeks away from Christmas, so now's as good a time as any to talk about (drum roll, please) e-books. Amazon kick-started the e-book market (with apologies to earlier e-book readers) with the introduction of the Kindle in the fall of 2007. Two years later, Barnes and Noble, IREX, and Sony announced [...]

    I point you in the direction of Business Insider, which has compiled a list of knock-off products that's worth your time. It's not just the typical, Chinese iPhone wannabe, either. Like, nalencia oranges? Never heard of those. Dolce & Banana? I might be able to afford that. And, hmm, that looks an awful like the Amazon Kindle, but it's not quite it, now is it?

  • Introducing the $1,500 Intel e-book reader

    Introducing the $1,500 Intel e-book reader

    Posted on November 10, 2009 | No Comments
    The Amazon Kindle costs $260. The Barnes and Noble Nook costs $260. The Sony reader is $300. Clearly there's an established price point for what we call an e-book reader. Jumping into the e-book fray comes the Intel Reader, for fifteen hundred U.S. dollars. No WiFi, no associated book store, but it does include a 5 megapixel camera, and a host of features designed to make it the best choice for vision impaired people.
