    The screen on the Kindle is epaper so it can be read at any angle and backlighting isn't the issue with traditional electronic devices. That's a real technical breakthrough. On the other hand I am not sure the 1980s Coleco Adam design sensibility is the right way to go.

  • Yawn..

    Yet another sprawling useless column by Camille, completely devoid of value. I find it amusing that Camille finds global climate change a "baseless panic." Actually Camille I realize science is hard and you clearly have no idea of what scientific method is.Simply claiming global climate change isn't real isn't enough. You need to explain the data better than the current model.

    BTW which part of the CCSM3 model do you find baseless?

    has been doing bottom line pricing for a few years now so the feature is hardly new. MS give back promotion is a gimmick to generate traffic. At those percentage levels MS is losing money on every single transaction. Perhaps they view giving the money away as a customer acquisition cost but this isn't an innovative business model any more than win.com is.
