Is Google about to kill Amazon’s Kindle in with one simple move? http://bit.ly/3wUdo8 #

@ScottyJWS @bitlockers @rebekah888 @evantravers Thanks for the RT, everybody! in reply to ScottyJWS #

@ewturner The display, the battery life, and the lifetime free wireless internet capability - I like that the best! in reply to ewturner #

@WorkingClassFag That’s a good point, about netbooks - you might be right there. The KindleDX is just too expensive. in reply to WorkingClassFag #

@rebekah888 I would imagine book prices would be roughly the same, but the hardware competition would likely drive Kindle pricing down. in reply to rebekah888 #

@shortNtweet Kindle will be safe if Google just focuses on content, but they could take a significant chunk if they wanted to (a la Android) in reply to shortNtweet #

@shortNtweet BTW, teaching OT and NT Greek at Tokyo University in Japan….How cool is that?! It sounds awesome! in reply to shortNtweet #

@Sid_1138 I’ve never owned one myself, but the great battery life, and lifetime free (but limited) wi-fi is pretty attractive. in reply to Sid_1138 #

@ewturner Me neither - way too high right now. in reply to ewturner #

Will we soon have to pay for Hulu? Fox’s chief digital officer says yes. http://bit.ly/pu30X
