Comment on Exit the Kindle, in a Splash of E-Ink by TC Chiang

I have the similar problem of the kindle DX screen. The ink of words on the screen gets lighter and lighter. It is really difficult to read anymore. Of course, it happened after my warranty expired. And I don’t live in the states. Now, It almost becomes an antique on the shelf.

same here. Exactly one year and a week after I purchased the kindle.2 for the outrageous price of $335 (I am based in Europe), smudge appeared on the screen making difficult to read. I can’t even say I used it much. Only been reading 2 books on it. Definitely one tech investment I should have stayed away from.

@Times on AOL, 1994 – Was it an Internet or Web service for AOL customers?…

You have to remember, there was still a lot of skepticism that anyone would spend much time with expensive computer hardware, dialing in on slow phone lines to consume content that had few pictures, no video and was slow, slow, slow. Some of us clearly…

Patrick,

A great look back at how things began in York! It was fun helping to put up the first Digital Record in the Blizzard!

I remember saying that the roads are always plowed on the information superhighway back then only to then have to ignore the ban on driving in the blizzard to go down town to reboot our servers! Ugh!

Things certainly have come a long way!

Keep up the great work!

Comment on Considering the iPad as a Kindle Replacement by Kayneisha

Kayneisha — Wed, 20 Oct 2010 17:47:32 +0000

Personally, I’m anti-Kindle, I prefer a more open standard ebook reader. Mind you, I’m not that much of a fan of the iPad either, it’s just less limiting than the Kindle. Ultimately, people will choose the technology that gives them the best price and the best service for their buck. I’m seriously looking at the Samsung Galaxy Tab.

As an Angeleno, I am thoroughly envious of your ability to ride your bike through Manhattan. While I am more of a tea enthusiast, I can definitely appreciate good coffee. Seeing as to this place has both, I will have to keep it in mind if I ever make it out to NY again!
