Amazon Kindle 2 now shipping, also remains in stock

Amazon Kindle 2 now shipping, also remains in stockAs of yesterday, the Kindle 2 began shipping out, which should come as good news to those customers who pre-ordered the device.  But what seems a little more interesting is the fact that Amazon is still listing the Kindle 2 as being in stock.  If you remember back, the original Kindle quickly sold out and was back-ordered for quite some time.  It is nice to see that Amazon was able to handle all of the pre-orders and still manage to keep them available for new customers. 

Of course, the fact that the Kindle 2 is still available could simply mean that nobody is buying it.  Personally, I am sticking with the original as it seems to be just fine for my needs.  Not to mention, the Kindle 2, which is the same price, is lacking some of the original accessories, such as the leather case.  Kindle 2 customers will have to shell out an additional $29.99 for the case.  Anyway, if you are interested (as of this posting), the Kindle 2 is available and retailing for $359.

    it’s easy to imagine the Kindle being combined with the functionality of a cell phone, PDA and mp3 player to make an all-in-one gadget
