When the market get's behind them as the defacto choice, the are a monopoly. Same
goes for their PC's, after all who makes hardware than runs OSX besides Apple?
If all the app development and content ends up primaryily or even solely supporting
this device we have a real issue. Kindle is in the same boat IMHO. We need to
decouple the hardware, OS, and content so that no one company controls more than 1.

Gotta love Apple's version of the "razor and blades" strategy with
all those
"must-have" accessories, Apps, and content (music and video). Except in
Apple's case, they make a ton of money on BOTH the razor and the blades.
