By David Rothman Meanwhile I’m also curious what the Stanza guys are up to, and whether Amazon might port over Stanza, rather than the existing iPhone app, to display Kindle books on Android-OS machines. Probably not. But it sure would be fun if that happened. Just don’t take away ePub capabilities, please.

By Roger Sperberg The iPhone/iPod Touch have had the advantage of being the sole handheld devices with an e-reader that could access Amazon’s e-list. That will soon change.

By Joe Wikert 3G Wireless and Wifi -- I blogged about this long ago and have often wondered why Amazon didn't bother offering wifi with the Kindle.  Some said it would be redundant with Whispernet.  I say nonsense, particularly since I use wifi every day with my iPhone 3GS.
