Article: Amazon.com Now Selling More Kindle Books Than Hardcover Books

This was mentioned in Dr. Faherty's class, but I'm not sure whether a link was circulated. It certainly applies to this class as well:

  1. I think the price falling below $200 has definitely put it at a level consumers are much more comfortable with. I'm interested to see over the next year whether prices will fall slightly lower, and also to see when the iPad will dip in price.

  2. I've been told to "never by the first generation" of products, especially these newfangled ones like the iPad, iPhone, iTouch, and Kindle. Kindle DX came out in July of this year, and I'm pretty sure the prices will fall, likely next year.
