I question the future of Amazon Kindle.
Just like Apple's iPod, amazon's Kindle has a unique look that is easily recognizable . but HOW LONG is this look, along with the "not-so-new-anymore" e-ink technology going to be part of Kindle's brand identity?
with no protection over the Design of a Kindle . it has been pirated in the far east. (see article below) those cloned product can easily distract potential buyer who didn't do enough research on the product ------the major advantage of a Kindle over other e-reader is its easy WIFI distribution channel and its impressive book selection.
