U.S. News - Amazon.com executive dies in Lake Huron plane crash

[Gamefreak]

Sucks.. this is why you stick to commercial flights.

While it is sad to note any tragedy...on the humor huron-izon, his plane was probably underserviced due to the engineering crew having either a) blocked az accounts with funds held or b) deciding on a 90 day wait on inspection...

They flight mechanics took too long to "review" the plane.

I am sorry to hear that. Hope this will not affect amazon running

[rsot]

Unlikely teedon - he was involved in the Cloud development system but there are plenty of pawns to step up.

AZ could survive on just Kindle sales alone. I am the least bit worried about their monopoly.

You do realize Amazon is now losing money with each kindle sold right? It costs Amazon about $85 dollars to make one while they're selling them for $80 each.

Don't be such a n00b. The Kindle was designed as a profit channel for the items it sells within the ecosystem.

Same scenario with App Store and Android Market happened this year when they finally allowed developers to sell products within their applications.

Sell the product extremely cheap or free, hence making it easier for them to buy mass tons of bullsh*it they don't need once it's in their hands. People want life to be easier and they don't hesitate to pay for such a luxury.

My prayers go out to his family. This was NOT Karma. It was a tragic accident.
