Hooked
Josh Marshall is hooked on his Kindle. Read his post today on the front page of Talking Points Memo. The post is entitled "Another Disconcerting Moment." The moment came when he realized a book he wanted to read was not available on the Kindle. I am having more and more of these moments myself. I had to buy two books from Amazon.com and was peeved that they weren't available for the Kindle. And one book I wanted to download cost almost as much as the price for the printed book: $13.99, as I recall. Shouldn't all Kindle books be $9.99 or less because the publisher doesn't have to print them?

I have skipped purchasing Kindle books that list over $9.99. Do the publishers realize that we feel violated when they do this? They should conform themselves to Amazon's price promise just for good PR purposes.
