Amazon's Kindle Sales - Analysts Offer Competing Views

maybe there is something i don't know but here's what i know as far as the kindle gadget - i don't need another piece of mobile gadget. laptop and ipod are enough.

at $300, it's very expensive. in the future, kindle technology will be integrated with the laptop just like how are watch, still and video camera, PDA, etc are now integrated in our cellphone. i don't see the future of computing in kindle.

BB&T Bank: A Rose Amongst the Thorns

this article is disconnected from reality. it ignored statistics and put more emphasis on personal experience. the reality is that unemployment still rising and that will place an additional strain on struggling homeowners and will cause a further rise in foreclosures.

the stimulus is just a temporary solution to make the economy look good. it is a very shallow solution to very serious fundamental problems in the economy and in the society. we need to bring the core values of hardwork, patience, courage, faith, hope, frugality, etc. not just to ourselves but to our children and children's children. we need to nourish the next generation with good values for them to be able to face the challenges ahead. that i believe is a long-lasting solution.
