Finally a technology that appeals to real book lovers! When I first heard about the release of the Kindle, I wondered, "Why would anyone want that?" I love the look, feel, portability, and smell of a paper book, so I believed that a Kindle destroy those pleasures. Now, after carrying a Kindle everywhere with me during the past week, I'm a convert. The only thing it's missing is the smell of paper. I can't believe how easy it is to whip it out and start reading, with my place saved, whenever I have a few minutes. Even better, if I finish a book, I can turn on... more info
Haven't put it down since I got it! So, I've waited a few weeks to write a review even though I wanted to the day after I received my Kindle. I just wanted to be sure that I wasn't in a "Honeymoon" period with it. Anyway, I love it and use it everyday! It's comfortable to hold and easy to use.

Very good, but a few kinks overall, i love the Kindle. i love reading it and how wonderful it is to get what i want to read in under a minute. however, it does have a few minor flaws. the ergonomics are a little off.....you almost always have to hold it from the bottom, which is annoying at first, but it gets to be a second nature. its just that you tend to hold actual books at the sides. the case it comes with is very impractical. other than that i would recommend it to anyone.
