With my iPhone, this sort of release would have gotten lost in the noise of dozens of new apps every day The dark secret about the iPhone is that the gadget would just be a somewhat-better-than-average-to-use cell phone but for the myriad of clever apps that independent developers create. <br /><br />I know Amazon doesn't want the Kindle to lose its focus on reading, but there's a lot things that the Kindle could do via apps that wouldn't detract from that. If hundreds of thousands of apps for the iPhone and iPod touch haven't detracted from the two devices' appeal as a phone and music player, I don't think the Kindle as an ereader would be threaten by a few note-taking, productivity, and tourist apps.Mike Perryhttp://www.inklingbooks.com/noreply@blogger.com
