Have to say, I’m getting addicted to touchscreens. Was playing with a BlackBerry Curve over the weekend, and honestly thought it was broken, as I tried to “click” a few buttons on the screen by touching. Completely forgot about the buttons on the face and side of a BlackBerry, and I was a BB user for years. The iPhone screensize is too tiny for me to do sustained reading on the subway - wondering if the Kindle will do. Certainly makes reading tomes like Atlas Shrugged, one-handed, while standing on the train, a lot more likely, eh? :) Plenty of innovative ground yet to be covered by Amazon’s Kindle, Sony’s e-Readers, et al.. (Hint: you might find the Evolution of User Experience link I’ve provided as interesting food for thought - not Kindle-related, but usability/innovation) Haven’t (yet) bought a Kindle, but have the Kindle.app on the iPhone.
