Kindle's Achilles' heel - lack of community

According to Antonia Senior in the Guardian the problem with the Kindle is that there is no community. What it needs is some kind of well moderated set of forums where readers could discuss the Kindle and ebooks.

Can't see it ever taking off personally...

Ha ha! That's hilarious.

Quote: Anyone who can produce a good e-reader and back it up with an engaging community for book lovers could take on both Amazon and the pirates...

So what Antonia Senior is trying to say, is that KUF should launch its own eReader.
