I used to be able to use my Kindle in quiet anonymity.
Not any more.
Now I’m beset by curious women all asking, “is that the Kindle thing Oprah talked about?”
Then they want to talk about it.
And tell me how it changed Oprah’s life and they’re getting one, Blah, Blah, Blah.
Welcome to the 21st Century.
Now shut up, leave me alone and let me read .
I used to have an eBook, this one.
Hell I worked there and did the UI for it – they gave me one. I liked it’s simplicity but everybody kept trying to put the kitchen-sink in there, in that tiny paltform…
We should have done the MP3 language dictionary though; tap in a word in one language and get a sound out in the other language – but the chip-maker wouldn’t do it for the cost of the firmware upgrade, and cost in manufacturing is everything…
I like the look of the Sony reader.
