Amazon has now released their Kindle app for all three major smartphones – Blackberry, iPhone, Androd (although I think WinMo should be included in this, although it is dying a slow, painful death).

As mentioned previously, smartphones are becoming more and more mainstream. It what seems like a move to make that even more the case, AT&T has announced lower prices for monthly data plans for the devices.

We are seeing more and more smartphones each day of our lives. Even though I am not a big Apple fan, I certainly cannot argue that the iPhone has brought the smartphone to the masses.

The United States, and the world, eagerly await the big speech today. Barack Obama’s State of the Union Address? Nah. Steve Jobs’s announcement about Apple’s “latest creation.” Widely rumored to be a Tablet (didn’t we have those 5+ years ago and they never caught on?), we will find out in a few hours. While we [...]
Having recently purchase an e-reader (a Kindle), I just thought I would throw some tips out there to those folks interested in one of these great devices. Also, there have been a lot of new e-readers released at this year’s CES, so there will be more to choose from.
Book Selection. Even the best reader is [...]
PC World has a good article about the need for a standard in the e-book world. This is starting to come to a head as Sony has released two new e-book readers, and Barnes and Noble has announced a deal with Plastic Logic to use their new e-reader when it is released later this year/early [...]
Wired has a great post titled 100 Things Your Kids May Never Know. Here are a few good ones:
