Isn’t there a better way to do this ?
Oh come on … this is very nice that people are doing this, but I wonder if it isn’t dangerous, and why can’t Amazon.Com put some demo units at Borders or some local stores or something – maybe in big cities.?I’m thinking hard about buying a Kindle2 … but the way this is being marketed and sold is really disrespectful to good faithful Amazon customers … this kind of puts me off Amazon.Com in a way to see what this is doing to people. There has to be a better way … come on Amazon!This is like guerilla anti-viral marketing. Buy it sight unseen, untouched, at a very high price. Then, the people who do buy it are not going to be willing to really honestly tell people whether it was a mistake or not, because they are invested in it … heavily … and would feel foolish to admit such a costly mistake. So, as with many things people say, it’s great, whatever they think, and Amazon.Com and screwed people with a marketing strategy that I was hoping would be beyond them.I think I really might like the product, but with no test drive, and not being able to see and touch the thing … I don’t like this at all, and I don’t like Amazon for thinking they can make me go there.
