Ho ho ho Merry Christmas!

Ho ho he he ha ha....the only person laughing harder than me is Santa, who'll be going gaga over this new contraption. Probably rubbing his paws in front of the fire getting ready to count all that cash that'll be rollin' in this Christmas.

By this time next year most people will be carrying yet another device they'll need to keep an eye on, protect and remember to grab before they leave school, exit a cafe, bus, train or race out of the office on Friday night for that 'I-cant-wait-for-the-weekend' booze up party down the local!

What about the....It does have the capacity to hold up to 3,500 books, periodicals and documents! Like we don't have enough information to keep up with every minute of the day? And what about Twitter??? Do I receive that on my mobile?? And what about my emails??? Oh that's right....now I remember....they arrive on my other device...hang on a second man...I must have the bullS*** in the other pocket.

And ya gotta love this bit..."as expected, education is a big market for the bigger Kindle." Big market...for the Bigger Kindle. And Glamazon are going to manufacture a squillion of these things which will probably end up in tomorrow's junk piles.

And 347604 (is that your prisoner ID?) how can you love (?) the idea of getting newspapers delivered to a Kindle ready on the bedside table in the morning! Is that before or after you answer your mobile and respond to your 26 messages??

My my...am I the only one who sees what's really going on here?
