I was rather intent on disliking it. I am hardcore book. Well, guess what? It isnt awful. Its not great, but itts not awful. It is convenient for me to "carry" the book on my iPhone versus separately. I can read virtually anywhere and have nothing more to carry than my phone. <BR/><BR/>Yes, small screen is a minor issue but again, its not awful.<BR/><BR/>I rather surprised myself that I liked it. I suspect I would like the Kindle too.<BR/><BR/>But something in side me is screaming out for the paper, the leatherbound books with the gold leather, the ability to mark up and highlight with a pen, the ability to share the book.<BR/><BR/>But, again, it aint bad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21112957.post-9798014476409259602009-03-10T08:34:00.000-06:002009-03-10T08:34:00.000-06:00I am glad you are enjoying your kindle.

It bothers m partner to no end. But next time she complains I can tell her to be glad I don't have a Kindle! (Though she'd love it because she thinks books are clutter. Seriously, who believes that????)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21112957.post-33326568960084664412009-03-09T19:32:00.000-06:002009-03-09T19:32:00.000-06:00I'm envious...I've been saving for a Wii but the K...I'm envious...I've been saving for a Wii but the Kindle...ah...the Kindle...it may have to come first.
