Michael Arrington Calls for Kindle Clones

Michael Arrington urges Amazon to open the Kindle to cloning. He writes: "Very quickly we’d see a wide variety of Kindle devices, all competing on price, features (large and small screens would just be the start) and form factor. Hardware manufacturers, who are all constantly trying to squeeze a tiny bit of margin out of their products, would suddenly have another revenue stream to tap."

Well sure I'd like to see iPhone and iPod clones too. Apple don't play dat.

But I could see this happening if the business model is that Amazon still controls the content.

The strength here is that combination of device and content provider...just like iPod and iTunes.
