Kindle to arrive

Wow this is an amazing thing. I ordered my Kindle on March 3rd and it is scheduled to arrive in 2 weeks. From the email:

We now have estimated delivery dates for the Kindle order you placed
on 3/3/08. We are now estimating that your Kindle will arrive between 4/14/2008 and 4/21/2008. We’ll contact you again to let you know when your order is shipped.

This must be a good thing for Amazon’s stock price. A $400 item that is 6 weeks backlogged. If you haven’t seen, or tried, the kindle; think ipod for books only the store is accessible from anywhere you can get a cell signal. Sony iBook reader RIP.
