Robot humanoids will eventually take over the world. Everybody knows that. But until then we get to play with their earlier ancestors, like the Hexbug Original Bug.

Kindle - January 20th, 2010
As new models continue to be launched into the market, the price of an Amazon Kindle 2 for sale keeps plunging. The surge of the new Kindle DX and maybe the current economic crisis appear as the most probable reasons for the 40% discounts on the version 2 of the Amazon Kindle wireless reader. While lovers of the “latest gadget” turn to the new Kindle DX, many Americans are saving hundreds by buying 2nd generation Kindles.
When the Kindle 1 first appeared, competition was scarce, to say the least. The Sony reader was no match to Amazon’s new wireless reading device, and even Oprah openly stated the Kindle e-reader was her personal choice. However, Amazon seems to know how to listen to its customers, and not long after an improved Kindle 2 was launched into the market. A few months later, nonetheless, customers were paying much less for an Amazon Kindle 2 for sale. What’s the explanation for this?

Kindle, Mobile, Wireless - January 15th, 2010
Since the release of the first Amazon Kindle ebook reader, the niche for these electronic devices has seen dramatic changes. In spite of the recent irruption into the market of several new readers, customers still seem to consider the latest versions of the Sony ebook reader and Kindle DX as the main reading devices to chose from. The battlefield, however, still seems to be dominated by the Kindle, due to a number of factors.
The criteria to establish which one is the best ebook reader is, of course, subjective. Not every person who buys a reading device has the same sort of use in mind ,and even if this were the case, priorities change from one customer to the next. However, there are a few points that are usually considered the most important ones when a potential buyer wants to compare ebook readers. For example, readability has been a big issue from the start and one of the main differences between an ebook reader and other devices like laptops, or even the iPhone and the iPad. In this field, the Kindle DX justifies its supremacy with its 9.7” screen (almost 3” bigger than Sony reader biggest model’s), the latest e-ink technology and imppecable definition of both images and text. “This feature alone justifies the investment”- tells us John Houston, from Denver, a Kindle DX owner and once buyer of the first Sony reader that entered the market. “Images look great and it feels almost like reading from paper.”, he adds.
