Supposedly this podcast talks about Kindle 3 rumors. I haven't listened to it yet:

L
K3 as early as April?  Didn't K2 just come out a month or so ago?  Are updates that soon normal for gadgets?  I did not listen to the podcast, just read the headline.  Anyone that listened, can you enlighten?

You will not see a Kindle 3 this year. Generally there a 12 to 14 month lifecycle until a gadget gets updated.

I ordered my Kindle 2 Friday night; it should be here Tuesday.  Can't wait.  Called and talked to customer service with questions (I read the negative reviews on Amazon) and they said there were no plans right now for a Kindle 3.  Not that they would tell me if they were -- they want me to buy the K2!

Congrats Carol on getting your Kindle. There are threads in Let's Talk Kindle about names. I know there was a thread sharing Kindle names, but not sure where. If I find it I'll post a link for you. Smiley
