This is a special "flash" episode of The Kindle Chronicles with my coverage of today's Amazon products and services event. The big news was that Astro, a home robot, is being offered for invite-only purchase later this year for a price of $1,000. It looks like an amazing invention, and I want one! I'm finishing this episode in time to head north to Casper, Wyoming, in the new Tesla I picked up in Boulder yesterday. Onward!
