re: #5 Walter L. Newton

The bigger story is still unanswered. Doe Amazon have the ability to erase a book already on your Kindle, without your intervention? Or, how much control from THIER side do they have to the INSIDE of your device?

I asked that question the other day, I’ve heard no answer. I suspect that if Amazon CANd o this, then I would not recommend this device to anyone.

Even Microsoft Update can be configured to ask you if you want to accept the intrusion from Microsoft.

Amazing what people will tolerate.

As long as it’s not the government doing the data mining, etc, it’s all right.
