There have been so many rumors about the Kindle 2 . It’s time to set the record straight. First off, the Kindle 2
will be released on February 24, 2009. You can preorder the Kindle2 now.
The orders will be prioritized on a first come first serve basis. Kindle 1 owners who order by midnight tonight will have first priority though.
