Kindle 2.0?

The Kindle world is abuzz with rumors that Amazon will be releasing a new version of the Kindle by October. CrunchGear has the full story. What do you think? Have you been holding out on purchasing a Kindle with the hope that they will come out with a re-designed version? Do you think they will have the same fulfillment issues they had the first time around? Any guesses on the new features that will come with the device? Personally, I hope some firmware changes are on the way, as well as native support for PDF and ePUB standards.

Update: Oops... Forgot to link to CrunchGear.
