From: webword.com
"
Not to beat the A9 story to death, but...
In one of the recent posts John asked, "It is confusing that A9 is part of Amazon. How connected are they exactly? They want to be hip, but they are tied to the Amazon mothership."

I suppose this constitutes me "telling my friends." Now you can't say I don't love you.
