"A Physical App"
/Diego Basch on the Kindle:
The Kindle is so cheap that I see it as a “physical app”, just like the iPod Shuffle. I couldn’t care less about the object itself. I don’t have a case for it, and when it breaks I’ll order a new one overnight without thinking twice about it.
I agree. I love my Kindle, and it’s nice that it’s so easily replaceable.
