This video is a great example why the iPad is the Kindle killer. The reason that I can't ever see Kindles being used in middle school and higher is the limitations of the live ink format. With live ink, you cannot get the detail needed for science text books. While you might be trading the non-back lit features, you are also gaining chances for videos, websites, games and more interactivity with the iPad.

I'm actually staying up tonight till midnight waiting to see if it is posted on the Apple site tonight.
