Love seeing the evolution.
haha not sure about that gif but agreed!
Love seeing early versions of products.
Great reminder of how importation iteration and evolution is with product design. Getting it right is early is important, but more important is often getting something out there, seeing how it is working, improving it, then rinse and repeat.
Kinda love how weird this design was, looks like a movie prop
I like eReaders, and I don't miss the full keyboard on the kindle at all, but I never quite understood why they dropped hardware buttons for page turns on base-models.
Kobo has also done this.
Cost saving?
