Is this true. we know CNet needs some help with their people skills but come on. Is Kevin Rose going to be reviewing the Kindle any time soon?

I hope not, if so i think I just lost alot of faith in what Rev3 is to be one day.

if it doesn't come from Rev3 then i don't care about itIf its true, then it depends on how it is arranged.
Just like the Philip Morris Group (now Altria to distance themselves from the association with cigarettes) - just because you don't smoke, doesn't mean you can't enjoy an Oscar Meyer weiner, or a slice of Kraft cheese.
(OK, I know Kraft is no longer part of Altria, but its still a good example)

i'm not saying i am going to head for the hills if Rev3 is bought. i'm saying if a deal like this goes down i'm sure jimbo or who ever will annouce it. not some gossip site. plus this type of gossip happens alot (Rev3 is being bought by BLANK)

i'm not saying i am going to head for the hills if Rev3 is bought. Sory - misunderstood you. Thought you meant that if the podcasts aren't coming from Rev3, then you wont care. Now realise that you wont care until its annouced by Rev3.

I don't care much for CNet (http://www.crunchnotes.com/?p=411) so I hope it's not true, but if it means Rev3 doesn't have to worry about being in the red and have even more resources, then so be it.
For now, it's a nasty rumour. :-/

Good news, I was told ON the record that it was not accurate.

i didn't have to be told. i could tell by the fact that CNet had not put out a press release.

man...I am so relieved! I saw the headline and I took a double take. It would be...tourtous to see Rev3 go to a bad conglomerate meant for old people like Cnet...
