I enjoyed Diamond Age as well. And I read it in a country that was not the USA! The Kindle however is a USA Only device, unlike a paper book which can be read in any country you choose.

I do not have a MAC, but my spouse does and I recall having to put a dollar sign in front of the password to connect to our wi fi. This is an old solution and probably does not apply anymore, but I thought I'd mention it 'cause it drove me crazy.

Other than the fact that this "Kindle" looks like the usual DRM crap, I won't be buying it because it only works in the United States of America. 3 years in the making and they couldn't figure out a way to get it to work outside the tiny area of USA. I thought these guys at least would figure out that the there is a large English speaking world outside the USA. What the heck were they doing for three years??? Must be disappointing to spend three years working on something and have it turn out so lame.

Not being able to read PDF files is just so stupid I cannot believe it. Probably not available outside the the US anyway.

Isn't this the Logitech IO repackaged?
