@sharrah@... it is actually more expensive the both the wifi and 3g kindle, and does not have the battery life, nor will it be readable in direct sunlight. The apps will not be anything special at least compared to an ipad. This device is really in a bad niche. Like I said one big set of comprimises. I am not trying to knock this device, I just don't get it. Both the kindle and the ipad have very clear strengths. This device just does not have any clear strengths. I fear the user base will be too small for any developers to make any real money so I would not bank on the developer angle.
