    Nick Carr (of "The Shallows") is skeptical of the Kindle Fire's new "X-Ray" feature. He writes, "A person of the web may see X-Ray as a glorious advance. A person of the book may see the technology as a catastrophe."

More Kindle Limitations Discovered - 0 views

shared by arnie Grossblatt on 25 Jun 09 - Cached
  • As noted earlier, DRM does nothing to prevent piracy. It’s in place on the Kindle to provide proprietary lock-in for Amazon and a little hand-holding comfort for nervous publishers.  It serves to annoy and alienate potential paying customers. The Kindle has great potential as a device, but as long as Amazon continues to cripple it, readers would be advised to seek alternative e-book solutions.
