maybe i am not quite current on the rumors, but what you are describing sounds nothing like an e-reader. Content is not the primary draw of kindle nor can kindle be considered something to be packaged as software for a phone. Anyhow, as someone who actually enjoys reading (not like most of the Joneses who buy these things and find themselves unhappy because their new toy doesn't play movies) I am still trying to decide which brand e-reader to get. For now the apple media pad does not seem to fall in to the same category as other e-readers.
