Amazon launches Kindle on Monday


It is offcial Amazon has launched a new eReader called Kindle. Most viewers find it ugly but I find it really well designed somehow!

It is, in fact, retro designed but seems to me like a tool coming directly from the spacecraft "Galactica":)

In addition to its killer design and holds inside some impressive features that will make shy Sony Reader's developers for a while.

Whiel this latest needs to synchronize its content with a computer, the Kindle can have access to cellular networks and even wireless internet (not sure!)

The only two things that can be taken as negative about this product is that primarly, it costs about $400, which means $100 more Sony Reader and secondly, it doesn't use an open standard ebooks reader format. It uses Amazon's proprietary format called Mobipocket.
