Latest | Highest ratedAmazon: Forget Analysts, Kindle Still Irrelevant [View article]
Well written. I think it will matter who Amazon is going after. If they're going after Kids/college students, it might work. Especially if they are going after markets such as India where the local library system is non-existent and cost of buying good books is exhorbitant.
Some time back I was talking to a colleague of mine who shifted to India from US and she was very disappointed by the lack of good books in the library for her kids. She was buying books from here and shipping them to India. A costly proposition.
Also if its competitvely priced for people who love books, like myself, it'll make sense. Every year I have to donate atleast 10 books I have bought in the past (for lack of space on the bookshelf). It breaks my heart. As you rightly mention though I am still waiting to see compelling pricing from Amazon.
