Amazon releases Kindle source code to the world
,----[ Quote ]
| Jeff Bezos wants the Kindle to have some healthy competition. That’s why
| Amazon just released their source code for all the Kindle devices. It’s basic
| Linux underneath (kernel 2.6.22 on the latest 2.1 software), but includes E
| Ink drivers and other hardware support.

Amazon Kindle powered by Linux, FSF not impressed
,----[ Quote ]
| Amazon is also using BusyBox (how can you not if you're running embedded?),
| so it's a good thing they've released that code - BusyBox has been active in
| recent years by way of the Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC) in making sure
| that vendors that use their code actually comply with the GPL.

Impeach Bezos for Amazon's Kindle Swindle
,----[ Quote ]
| We hope he gets the message that he's swindling his customers and in the
| process undermining important fundamental freedoms to read and share. Amazon
| seems to understand this message when it comes to music -- why don't they get
| it when it comes to the Kindle?
