A few days ago I blogged about peak ereader and how one big English bookshop chain had stopped stocking Kindles.

The cheapest I could find was a refurbished Kobo for fifty bucks - as a comparison on the same day I could get a new end of range 7" android tablet for an extra ten bucks -from Telstra of all people.
The market has voted - no one wants them ...
