I totally agree having access to Kindle books would be wonderful! Just not
sure if they would work on our Icons. There is a particular book which is not
on Bookshare that is in Kindle format that I would love to read!

speaking of amazon, it would be cool if the i con could use the new
kindle format the kindle is a new e-book reader from amazon they have
90000 titles I know we have bookshare but there may be things the kindle
has bookshare doesnt and e-books are cheaper than real books in the
store. The kindle and the e-paper from sony are bringing to the sighted
what the roadrunner bookport bookcourier and icon have given us for a
decade.
