William Gibson Touches Amazon's Kindle for the First Time, Then Autographs Four of Them

Gearlog: "Is this a trend yet? If not, it's sure to be soon. After all, William Gibson is nothing if not harbinger of the future, right? The Neuromancer author has official given the thumbs up to Amazon's popular eBook reader, writing on his Twitter account, 'Actually, *touched* very first Kindle. Appealing unit, IMO.' Gibson didn't just like the unit, however, he signed the thing at a fan's request--in fact, he signed four of them during an appearance yesterday on Microsoft's campus in Redmond."
