It’s been a tough day so far, and I’m still recovering from the MacBook Pro open heart surgery (new 320GB HD + Leopard install + BootCamp/WindowsXP/EVE Online Trinity Premium Content install last night), but here are some odds-and-ends from this morning:

• The Kindle is cooler than I thought (but Amazon is as lame as I expected)
• These two discs are not even gold plated and they still cost $500,000,000.00USD
• It’s the end of the world as we know it [for Netscape Navigator]
• Warner music just decimated Zune, Rhapsody, Napster, et al (the subscription model was never all that intelligent to begin with so these folks deserve to have their business model crushed)
• I hear they killed Kennedy and Lincoln, too

Finally, is anyone else thinking that Google may have to re-issue their 2007 Zeitgeist in light of the Bhutto assassination?

My post on the Kindle over @ TAB.

Gruber agrees (and is a bit more emphatic about it in his Twitter posts).

…the Kindle is based on Linux…

Guess the hackers will be decimating Sprint’s EV-DO network soon…
