Somebody over at CrunchGear just discovered that the “biggest problem with the Kindle” is that you can’t read it during take-offs and landings. I’m not entirely sure if the rationale behind that is that it looks like a laptop, therefore bad, or it has the same electronic configurations as a laptop, therefore interfering with the plane’s signal systems, therefore bad. Sounds more like a minor inconvenience than a problem to me. Seeing as I don’t own a Kindle (and probably never will; I’m too old-fashioned to give up my real books) I can’t pinpoint what exactly the “biggest problem” of the device is. Well I read that it doesn’t support PDF files though, which sucks because that’s pretty much the only file format I use when reading digital texts.

I don’t know either… but since it is basically a data only cellphone too. That makes sense.
