Amazon Kindle Ready To Go And On Newsweek

That's right, while Engadget informs live from the Amazon Kindle event, Newsweek has published a quite interesting article on Amazon, Jeff Bezos and the just launched Kindle.

Let's do some reading to decide which one will be the ebook reader I'll buy this year.

Update: And here it is!, Amazon Kindle for sale for US$ 399.

Gadgets I Want In 2007

I don't want this post to become a meme, but of course I'd like to know what other bloggers want, here's the list of gadgets I plan to buy this year:

  • The Sony Reader, because I can't live without books, must test an E-Ink device and have always had a great experience with Sony products (my Clie has more than 5 years and runs like a charm). Price: US$ 299.99.

    Sony Reader, digital books with E-Ink

  • Canon Digital Rebel XTi, because I want to shoot real pictures, get all the benefits of a DSLR and good 'ol Olympus D-320 already deserves a break. Price: US$ 722.00 and at least a grand for a pair of good lenses.

    Canon Digital Rebel XT, true photography

  • Nokia N800, because a Wi-Fi gizmo not as heavy as Amber, the Pangolin, is a must in every geek's cave, it runs Linux and my lovely wife stole the TX. Price: US$ 359.00.

    Nokia N800, an ideal mobile companion

Of course there are lots of other stuff I'd like to get but I don't think The Wife would permit it, but hey donations are welcomed.
