Rumor: Kindle 2.0 to show up in October

Original Kindle

The news would come from an insider: a new and greatly improved Amazon Kindle is on its way and from what’s being said, it is leaps and bounds better than the first generation. First, it is said to be as big: 8.5×11”. There’s no mention of a color display, so it looks like we should not expect one. If true, that would be a welcome improvements, as we’ve said in the past that eBooks aren’t good enough, even if we like the cuteness of the Kindle.
