I Love My Kindle
This is a quick one.
I bought a Kindle in late July, and immediately fell in love with it. It is light, very easy to use and to read, and buying content is almost too easy — you really have to exercise impulse control. One feature that isn’t exactly a secret but that does not get as much attention as I would expect is that it functions as a perfectly adequate web browser, with completely free internet access, using the same WhisperNet that Amazon uses to deliver content.
One other neat thing is that bunch of public domain literature is available for extremely low cost, and you can obtain, for example, the King James Bible, the complete Shakespeare, complete Conan Doyle, complete Chesterton, and complete Jane Austen for less than $25. And you can literally carry them all with you everywhere.
