Amazon is expected to announce the availability of a large screen Kindle tomorrow.
The target market is students buying college textbooks.
Newspaper publishers are convinced it’s all about them – they just aren’t getting that their remaining readers just aren’t that into them.
A price point hasn’t been announced, but having some confidence in Amazon’s business vision, I’m going to guess $399.
As a professor, I’m hoping that the publishers will get the business model pioneered by the cellphone companies and give me one of these babies instead of a semester’s worth of exam copies. I’m holding my breath, but not too hard.
