Regular cell phones can give dedicated eReaders a run for their money, they make fine free readers for novels and general prose. You can see the advantage of not having to carry or charge anything extra, and of course you can wirelessly install books on demand. You can get a good sense of the potential at http://www.booksinmyphone.com they give away hundreds of public domain and creative commons books. You can install direct to your phone from the mobile version of their site, or download and install via a PC.

Maybe if I had a bone to pick I would interpret Jobs comments as negatively as the previous commenters but the “nobody reads” stuff is an exaggeration that everyone understands.

Lots of tech commentors that really want Android to work have been poking holes in it. Jobs is going light on that topic, as far as I can tell.

In any case, I read constantly on and offline and I wouldn’t use the Kindle for that cause I LOVE BOOKS! Real books.

I would use the Kindle for things like reference resources and technical manuals and that could be a great thing.

But books are still the superior medium for extended in-depth reading, IMHO.

I just blogged about my views about Steve’s comments
http://whydoeseverythingsuck.c.....opher.html

As I said in my post, this was steve at his worst. Whining about how no one else makes phones because its harder than it looks. Thats just what palm and microsoft said when apple entered the biz. The truth is that there is *way* more room to innovate on cell phones.

Since there’s no dirty trick that I wouldn’t believe Jobs capable of, I think this writer is right on. Jobs comments were intended to distract everyone until under great secreacy Jobs can announce an ebook reader at a time in the future of his choosing. No backlit computer will ever compete with the Kindle, which is infinately better to read, and has a huge battery life to go with it as well – something no portable computer can ever come close to.

His comment re reading being a lost art or cause is obviously plain stupid, and another lie to distract everyone from his real intention. Jeff Bezos, Amazon founder and CEO, obviously does not believe that, and has proven this to be wrong by becoming the largest bookstore in the world. And who better to produce the first ebook reader that will be hugely successful. I got mine on Dec. 4th, abslutely love it, and already have 72 books in my Kindle’s memory.
