dreams of a sub $100 ebook reader, LJ moving
Monday, May 31st, 2010 01:46 pm1. Whoa, I wonder whether this will ever be a reality? I think a $100 e-ink reader IS coming soon, though. Amazon is introducing a Kindle 3.0, although it is unknown whether there will be a price cut. It is possible, though, that they are feeling pressure from Kobo and other cheaper ebook readers.
2. BTW, in case you have trouble accessing LJ, it seems that "LiveJournal is currently in the process of moving its office, which will result in intermittent site slowness and difficulty accessing certain specific journals or page. These difficulties should be resolved within the next 24 hours (during the day Tuesday, June 1st). In the meantime, refreshing the page will usually resolve the issue. We apologize for the inconvenience."
I wonder why they didn't notify people ahead of time in lj_maintenance? This was, after all, a foreseeable issue, as usually people don't spontaneously move offices. (Although I don't really understand why moving the office really makes a difference, as from what I understand, the servers are in Montana anyway?)
