Amazon: 'iPad LCD tablets no threat to Kindle'

works for me

Can be charged from a standard USB port, yes. Battery genuinely lasts for weeks. £40 extra buys the cover with LED light, well worth it IMHO. The two combined work very well.

Have only seen one naked Kindle, on the tube, all the rest seem to be with the burgundy cover, although not many with the LED light. Go figure.

Horses for courses, I'd say. Would like an iPad equivalent, but saving up for an Android first.

UAE to cut off BlackBerry users

Visitors to UAE

I presume this also affects roaming users from outside the UAE, for example from the UK. If so, then there will be lots of unhappy business people.

If it doesn't affect roaming users, then that would be a way to bypass the ban, for the savvy terrorist. Whichever, this will probably not prove as complete and useful a solution as might be thought.
