Some of these are from my own source , some are from Caroline at CNet News , who put together a gravid piece on the Kindle , and if timestamps have it right , scooped the news of Monday ’s Launch a few hours before we did .

• There is no backlight . Instead , an extraneous lamp on an arm is go to serve with night recital .
• We ’ve suspect EVDO , but CNet suspects Sprint . It ostensibly has Wi - Fi , too .
• Book download should take 2 minutes .
• Yes , that is the final blueprint . ( Snowspeeder - ish , as reader Atroc . has commented )
• A bigger book aggregation than even Sony , with 50 - 100 news beginning let in the WSJ and NYTimes .
