BTW I meant Higher book prices.  I think as soon as the Kindle app hits the
iPad Apple will need to come down but apparently the publishers get to set
the pricing.  I wonder if the music industry has talked to apple yet.

 I like the idea of a black and white e-ink screen and a touch screen on the
same device but it has to be done right.  I want to handle one with the form
factor of two facing pages in a book like shape.  I've only seen a kindle up
close once and had a quick look at the NookEBook at a Barnes and Noble.  The
nook looked too small.

I just hope the price war comes soon.
