Brainstorming Exercise

Identify at least three innovations that would improve the current Kindle models.

There are currently two variants of the Amazon e-Reader: the Kindle 3 and the Kindle DX. After reviewing the specs of these models and watching the videos that accompany the specs (or better yet, obtain one and use it for an hour), identify at least three innovations that you think would improve the Kindle experience.

For each innovation you report, give a brief description of what it is and why you recommend it.

To assist you with this exercise, here's a form that you can download and use for the exercise. We will discuss these in class. I will collect your proposed innovations after class.
