UPDATE: Touchpad computers

Earlier today, I offered a posting about touchpad computers mounted on shopping carts in China (see two postings below).  Moments ago, colleague and friend Brian Tomassetti shared another story with me that is worth passing along.  It is about Amazon’s entry into the tablet market, and the complete re-design of Amazon’s website in anticipation of explosive growth in the use of tablets going forward.  Click here to see the story, courtesy of ReadWriteWeb.

Implications:  Again… in what ways might emerging technology change the way people shop your category?  Amazon is thinking about it.  Should you be, too?
