The NYtimes blog has apparently been able to confirm that Amazon will in fact NOT be releasing a new version of the Kindle this year.  The article quotes the chief spokesperson from Amazon, Craig Berman, as saying:

“Don’t believe everything you read.” “There’s a lot of rumor and speculation about the Kindle. One thing I can tell you for sure is that there will be no new version of the Kindle this year. A new version is possible sometime next year at the earliest.”

Well that settles that.  Those of you out there who were looking to get the Kindle as a holiday present may as well go out and get an iphone, or maybe an ice cream maker?
