If browsing (and thus all web-apps) are much faster than on the iPad, it will push the state of the art... security (https) be damned.


So to me there's two parts of introducing new technology that every group has to address: the technical advances and the policy around the new technology for consumers. Amazon is obviously doing a good job to help the technical side of it, but so far I think they're failing on the policy. They haven't mentioned the ability to shut off the split processing or use a different browser, and the answers to their privacy FAQs on privacy on their website are totally evasive. I think they're going to find themselves in a world of hurt if they don't start being more open about their policies, but who knows, it may end up not mattering to the masses.
