When I logged onto Amazon last night I learned that Kindle starts shipping in the UK on October 18. As a marginal sceptic/late adopter I wasn’t the first to proffer my £175, but let’s face it, we’re all watching with interest. It’s going to be big and with Amazon behind it, the device isn’t going to become a white elephant. Unless someone comes up with something better …All the stuff about how it differs from the US version goes over my head but it could be the saviour of the printed media industry, giving them another opportunity to charge for content. But what a pity many people are going to use such a fantastic device to read nothing more than Dan Brown. Sorry. Unworthy thought.
