Current technology eInk readers will become a throw away technology within 5 years. You'll see them hanging next to cheap calculators in grocery stores. They'll have the latest best sellers, or entire series, or genra collections on them. People will read and then lose them in a drawer.
I loved my Kindle ... but it had a very short life.
Still, I suppose many may be too stupid to know to scroll down (talking scrolling down, not clicking anything). But, I am smart enough to know that the article continues below my currently visible screen. So even if advertising paid more for my scrolling action ... I'm going to do it without needing to read, "After the break". It's a waste of effort ... and unnecessary and presumes a low level of web fluency. It's like saying "Click Here". Poor web design, provide me the link, don't presume I don't know that links are clickable.
I don't see anywhere the author suggests this is "innovative". As something missing this is "interesting" for someone that has an iPhone and wants the feature, but in no way innovative ... nor was it suggested as such.
Amazing how much the fanatical users of their phones (in this case an Android user) bashes the other phones.
I love the competition. If Android had not come out, Apple may have dragged their feet longer on multi-tasking. If iPhone had not come out and changed the hardware/cell provider relationship, we'd all still be using crappy phones.
I WANT Android to come out with a better phone. It will lead to my iPhone becoming better. If it doesn't, I'll switch.
