amazon.com / new Kindle released yesterday
amazon.com released their 2nd version of the Kindle. I have been following this closely since the launch of their Kindle 1 and the Kindle 2 is much more sleek and user intuitive. I have been wanting to procure this gadget in India and even tried ordering it online (for the Kindle 1) from amazon.com some months ago but they do not ship it to any location outside of the USA (therefore not shipping to India as well). I tried the same today for the amazon.com Kindle 2 but again, no luck! Since I have a voracious appetite for reading e-books and regular books, I thought this would add value to my reading abilities esp. on the move. Guess, I will have to wait.
Here are some pictures I got from amazon.com website:

The Kindle does as well as can be expected without it being a touchscreen

yeah the same i visited to the site of Amazon . Thats for sure , we have alternative to go for Sony Digital Reader book but as per the cost and all, they are more reliable , but how about Jeff Bezos who leaded the company’s warehouse with highly strategic Kaizen Principle. so ofcourse it would be the gud well preformed product.
