- bostonpete 15y ago> E-Ink kindles are much more useful and friendly for book readers. In some sense, you could use that same rationale to discount the possibility of the Kindle succeeding against books. E-ink is arguably nicer for reading, but on the flip side, access to video, apps, and the web is a big selling point. I think it's up against the iPad, not the Kindle, and I think it stands up pretty well.

It seems they understood that the e-ink is a must to keep. http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Touch-Wi-Fi-Ink-Display/dp/B005890G8Y/ http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Touch-Wi-Fi-Ink-Display/dp/B005...
