I think the comments on that post would agree. That was just a bunch of useless babble.

Mr. Bezos may be right when he says an e-reader is better than a book, but the customer satisfaction suggests why so many companies are rushing in to compete with his Kindle. Maybe so many companies are rushing in to compete with the Kindle is because it's such a great thing and people love it! |

Where's Verena's Dilbert cartoon about statistics?
He focuses on the 1 star ratings going up between the K1 and the K2 (I'm ignoring the DX, that's a separate product, not a new iteration of the same product), and ignores that the 5 star ratings also went up--59.7% of ratings for the K1 are five stars, and 60.8% of the ratings for the K2 are five stars in the charts he shows.

like what another reader and blogger has pointed out, he has also ignored the statistics of those who wrote 1 star ratings but hasn't owned the kindle. or the fact that the number of reviewers is just a handful compared to the number of those who actually own the kindle.

It just proves the old cliche', "Figures don't lie, but liars figure." Learned that in my college statistics class.
