Kindle is most gifted Amazon item, ever
,----[ Quote ]
| Amazon.com on Saturday released its annual
| post-Christmas statement on holiday sales and
| made one thing clear: the Kindle was king,
| perhaps fueled by continued shifts in plans
| for shipments of Barnes & Noble's competing
| Nook e-reader.
|
| "We are grateful to our customers for making
| Kindle the most gifted item ever in our
| history," said Amazon founder and CEO Jeff
| Bezos.

| But, again, since this is the Kindle we're
| talking about, shouldn't Amazon make the
| distinction between purchased and rented?

| (translated) forum for participants to come up
| with a way to make ebooks published in Amazon's
| proprietary format display on competing
| readers. Eight days later, a user going by the
| handle Labba had a working program that did
| just that.
