Amazon Kindle Built on Java!

Document Actions

Interesting discovery by Igor Skochinsky, who hacked into Amazon Kindle book reader and discovered that its interface was built on Java.

The main GUI and most of the back-end code is written in Java. The framework is quite elaborate and can be extended with extra "booklets".

This good open the floodgates to some interesting applications. I think this certainly justifies a purchase of the Kindle book reader.
