Kindle 2: Reading Revolution?

Lately its not unusual to see new, developing technologies overshadowing the old. Now with the launch of e-book reader Kindle 2, some are questioning the practicality of the device. (CNET.com) Hello Im Charlotte Bellis and youre watching Newsy.com. The Kindle is a portable device from Amazon.com, which allows you to read electronic books on the go. FOX News reports on the increasing popularity of the gadget. I did an informal poll last night on Facebook and Twitter among our viewers, and hundreds of people said that they want to buy this product. (FOX News) NBC takes a look at the cost of the new technology. It questions Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos (bay-zos) about the steep price. I think it is a must-own for people who read. If you are a reader, if you like to read newspapers and magazines, this makes it much more convenient. (Even if its going to cost you $350 to get this when you can just go out and buy a book?) Even though its going to cost $359 to get this, the books are $9.99; you can actually save money over time using this device. (NBC) The New York Times takes another perspective on whether or not its worth the price tag. An e-book reader is a delicate piece of electronics. It can be lost, dropped or fried in the tub. Youd have to buy an awful lot of $10 best sellers to recoup the purchase price. If Amazon goes under or abandons the Kindle, you lose your entire library. And you cant pass on or sell an e-book after youve read it. (The New York Times) However
