  • Rate of Consumer Spending Decline Stabilizes - Overall Outlook Remains Grim
    Uhm, someone tell those people still shopping at Linens n Things that it's gonna be closed forever in less than a week.

    Just look at your first chart, I mean without October, you might have seen the leveling off in November, right? What if October said 58% expect to spend less? You could have totally missed it, but we'll never know since you either didn't do a monthly survey, or are choosing to ignore showing it.

    Paul, trying getting with the new Millenium and use a modern charting app. The 80s are calling back for their copy of MS Excel.

    Amazing how such a HUGE change in consumer sentiment, results in only a tiny percentage change in actual spending.

    These surveys by Changewave will always be suspect as long as the charts are misleading by using an X-axis that is not consistent from one date to the next. How can one do any trend analysis when surveys are sometimes one month apart and then 3 months apart. It's nonsense.

  • No New Kindles for 2008; Upcoming Models May Have Better Screens
    The right formfactor is critical for mass acceptance. It's too clunky, and fragile as it is. It needs color if it's to replace school textbooks. AND, the price needs to be subsidized. Something like $99 if you buy 12 books and free if you buy 24. Something along those lines.
