That Kobo reader looks nice, but having spent some time with a Kindle I have a hard time imagining going back to plugging it in to get books on it, especially considering the number of books I've bought while away from computer internet connections.
Amazon is rumored to be working on a Kindle with one of these screens: [link] which will make the whole e-reader world just a tad bit more interesting.
I hope that there remains a market for reflective-screen e-readers, because I'd hate to have to switch to reading on an LCD screen. Some people really can't tell the difference, and even love reading novels on their iPhone, but the last time I tried to do that (even with a nice large font) I had a splitting headache after about 3 hours.
Photoshop fans -- this is AWESOME!
Content-Aware Fill Sneak Peek
Holy carp that Photoshop thing is fabulous.
Holy crap.
My mind is awash with amazement, awe, fear and trepidation.
The latter two because it will make altering of photographs even easier.

Echoing one of the commenters: It's WITCHCRAFT.
That's incredible! I want it. For the Witchcraft version of Photoshop, I will pay the money.
I know, right? If it was a week later, I'd think they was punkin' us.
I was slack-jawed with amazement until the 'remove the road and replace it with plants that don't appear anywhere else in the photo' segment. Even in full screen mode, I could not see where the randomly shaped, densely situated plants came from.
Is that even possible for something like Renderman, much less PS?
I'm not surprised. I've been thinking for years that eventually we'd have this feature.
I mean, it's very cool (and would be fun to play with), but my first reaction is, "It's about time!"
I was slack-jawed with amazement until the 'remove the road and replace it with plants that don't appear anywhere else in the photo' segment.
It looked like it took one type of plant and replaced the whole road with it.
Even in full screen mode, I could not see where the randomly shaped, densely situated plants came from.
I thought I saw the plant they used near the road. Huh. May have to watch closer.
