Sony has finally made a bid to take back the e-book market which Amazon’s Kindle has been dominating since it was released. Sony has released the Reader Touch Edition.

Yesterday afternoon I had an appointment I couldn’t miss, so I left my husband on the front porch with a book to wait for the UPS delivery truck. Before you think I’m unjustifiably cruel, let me tell you about the UPS deliveries in our neighborhood.

I am anxiously awaiting the delivery of my very own Kindle 2. This is something I have wanted to own since I first saw the promotions on Amazon.com prior to the release of the original Kindle.

Like many of you, I’ve been patiently waiting to receive my March royalties I earned from Kindle sales. March proved to be one of the biggest months for authors as far as earnings are concerned due to the release of the Kindle 2. For those who may have missed this bit of information from my previous posts and are wondering why I said March, Amazon.com pays you 60 days after the end of a month,which is why we are just now getting paid our March royalties.

With Amazon.com launching its Kindle DX last week, it seems E-reading isn’t going away anytime soon. It’s only going to get bigger and better.

Today marks a day on the E-Calendar that many of us have been talking about the past year. It quite literally snuck up on us overnight, but the Kindle 2 is here and became available today. With 37 reviews already (the majority posted yesterday), it’s averaging 3.5 stars with a mixture of emotions all across the board. 17 reviews give it 5 stars, 11 are stuck in the middle, and 9 give it only 1 star.

Most of us have things in our lives that we can obsess on. In fact, ask any teenage girl and she’ll immediately tell you that her nose it too big or too small, she has too many freckles or not enough, that her eyebrows are too thin or too bushy; the possible list is endless. We can spend hours agonizing and obsessing over features that the rest of the world doesn’t even notice.
