As a primary portrait reading device I'd say the non-widescreen is actually the better decision. Otherwise the device would have been too big, or too narrow.

for books etc in portrait mode they could have use the excess area cause by a widescreen format to have footnotes, a swipe area, tools that you can tap etc

Had to have a big border, otherwise when holding it, your thumb would always be in contact with the touchscreen. We were discussing how they get round that in work earlier. Obviously went with a big black frame.

Looks pretty average. In fact, a little less revolutionary than the other products they've brought out. Will have watch the keynote later for a full view, but first impressions are pretty lax.

Bit more than a few years, but I agree Flash is on its way out. I expect Microsoft's Silverlight and JavaFX to take over.

"it has the most gorgeous black frame and we've put real time into this gorgeous device. A gorgeous colour screen, with a gorgeous input device on the gorgeous touchscreen. I mean it's just the gorgeous mobble pad we've made since we introduced the gorgeous iPhone, which was a truely gorgeous device. "
