Sammy, The Ebook King Under

That is the number quoted in a recent study from Forrester Research.
Another huge number quoted in the study is that digital book readers are the number one sought after personal electronic gadget this Christmas season, coming ahead of game consoles and mp3 players.
The convenience factor is my guess as to why they’re so popular in general, but I think PRICE is the reason they’re going to sell like hotcakes this Christmas 2009 holiday season. With Amazon slashing the price of the Kindle Wireless to $259 just last week, and another price drop expected closer to December the digital reader as we know it, is getting closer to going mainstream.
Everyone from industry analysts to retail executives are claiming that the Amazon Kindle will take the lions share of the market, followed closely by the Sony digital reader.
Make no mistake about it, these are the top digital book readers to watch at the end of 2009.
Have a happy holidays and a great new year – thanks for the post it was great!
Dominique, glad that you enjoyed the post!
I’ve had it just about a week now and the whole time it has worked great. my current laptop is a 14 inch hp that is nice but for college its much easier to have a small one that can actually last through more than two classes on a charge. so far i rarely have to charge more than once a day and ive been playing with it and using it quite often.
i installed the 2 gig upgrade with no issues at all, got bluetooth working to tether with my win mo touch pro and got my wireless headphones working as well with no issues.
older games like max payne 2 play just fine and even have an n64 emulator that runs great
its sturdy, looks great, runs well and does everything you can want it to do.
There’s some fantastic info here I will be able to actually take note
