Hong Kong book lovers will finally be able to get their hands on the Kindle 2, Amazon’s popular e-reader, when the product ships internationally on October 19.
Charlie Tritschler of the Amazon-affiliated creators of the Kindle, Lab126, was in Hong Kong recently and he gave me a run down of the features that sets Kindle apart from other e-readers. He also spoke about how the product will work in Hong Kong.
In this video, see footage of the Kindle and hear about the device from Mr Tritschler.

Is the Amazon Kindle here to stay, or simply “kindling” for the escalating tablet wars? Brooke Gladstone, host and Managing Editor of NPR’s On the Media, argues the latter. Some publishers who don’t want to price their content at the standard Kindle rate of $9.99 are separately negotiating with Apple, she says.

Companies across the media industry are racing to get their eReaders in the hands of consumers, which means big change for the publishing industry and the media business overall. Organizations are scrambling to ensure that their readership is not lost as the reading habits of their long-time consumers are redefined by the upheaval caused by the new wave of eReaders.
With Apple’s iPad release scheduled for April 3, the Paley Center gathered a group of senior media executives to discuss strategies for how the media industry can most effectively retain consumer loyalty as well as capitalize on one of the most talked about new gadgets of 2010.
