Amazon solved my Kindle problem by releasing a Kindle iPhone app that reads Kindle formatted books and is backlit, unlike the Kindle. Thanks, Amazon! Now I don't have to pay $359 for your proprietary reader!
Of course, there's the whole thing about being able to buy the book in, you know, COMPLETELY PORTABLE PAPERBACK FORMAT too. Amazon just really shot itself in the foot, I think. Far more people own iPhones and like myself, Amazon just made sure I never end up buying a Kindle until the price drops to something far more reasonable. For the price of the Kindle you can get an iPhone...oh and it does all the things an iPhone can do. Plus, I already have the iPhone.
Kindle swindle, indeed.
