Default Re: Kindle: Amazon\'s new wireless reading device

cons:
- DRM
- lack of features
- design. quite frankly, its an eye sore and it doesn't look like something I would like to hold for hours at a time.
- DRM


upside...
- (should it catch on) it will get hacked (and then become worthwhile)
- battery recharges via wireless. This seems to be the panty-dropper for me. I am unable to understand how this works and why more wireless devices don't charge like this..........................?!?! (can someone link an article to this technology? I have google'd but am unable to find much other than "hey amazon has this new product. here are the specs (regurgitate website).")
