New Kindle on the Horizon?

There’s much speculation that a new Kindle will be announced on February 9th. If true, we’d expect some cool enhancements from the device, though it’s questionable which of these enhancement could be big for magazine publishers. E-ink as a technology hasn’t made dramatic strides in color or animation since the first Kindle was released, so the idea of viewing a digital magazine in color glory almost definitely won’t happen in this format. However, the first Kindle has been a success and publishers seeking to reach Kindle users can use the Nxtbook Liberty platform to deliver a Kindle-like text-based solution of your magazine. Think of it as planting your flag prior to the gold rush.
