U.S.: Give Hearst credit. They’re trying out e-ink.

  • A newspaper-sized reader. Made by Hearst. The company has no history in the tech industry, but they do have a long history with newspapers and magazines. Word’s going around that the company will be selling its own Kindle that will be large enough for newspaper advertising dimensions. Will you be able to fold it in half? source

Biz, Tech: Is Amazon about to drop another Kindle on the world?

  • If so, let’s hope the new one isn’t so ugly. Amazon scheduled a press conference for Feb. 9. Oh-oh-oh! It’s not just any press conference. They describe it as “an important” one. CEO/founder Jeff Bezos will be there, and it’ll probably be something big, possibly a new Kindle. Does this sound like something Apple would do when they’re launching, say, a new iPod? Hmm … yeah. source
