This week’s New Yorker magazine has a fascinating piece by author Ken Auletta on the Kindle and the iPad, Jeff Bezos and Steve Jobs, and Amazon and Apple.
The magazine is also holding what’s sure to be an interesting “Ask the Author” session to follow up the piece this Thursday, April 22, 2010 at 3 p.m. EDT. You can participate by navigating to http://bit.ly/AulettaQAKindle. Kind of makes me wonder which Thursday afternoon session will be more interesting, the New Yorker’s or Amazon’s live quarterly earnings conference call that’s scheduled to be webcast the same afternoon at 5 p.m.
