I just want to say that the Kindle is the shit. I LOVE it. It's so easy to read and I pretty much think it is the bee's knees.

That is all! Very Happy

....yeah but does it smell like a book? No. When I think a book I want that booky smell and all things booky. Not a computer in my hand Razz

Na just kidding they are pretty spiffy. Do they do anything else besides just books? Like do they have games and such on them?

I don't know I'm just learning it..... but what I like about it is that I am one of those people that takes a book EVERYWHERE with me and I often re-read books and switch back and forth between books..... so it's perfect for me for that reason! Smile

well you can get some for free.... and others tend to be like $1 cheaper on the kindle.... most books sell for like $8 in stores... and they run about $6-7 with the kindle - (new releases). It really depends on the copyright date and how popular it is. I got all of Jane Austen's books for free..... and I paid $6 for a new release..... so it depends.

I am torn. I am like Tate and I like the booki-ness of books. But the Kindle does seem cool. I would think it would hurt your eyes after a while like a computer though.

Yeah I can't imagine looking at a screen... I imagine it can't be good for the eyes....then again neither is looking at a computer, or the tv, or reading a book in dim light...etc. etc. etc.

But I just think I couldn't part with the "bookiness" as Liz called it lol

I really really wanted a Kindle for Christmas. My mom got one, but I didn't. I really hope you like yours LaDonna.

ya'll it's crazy how much like a book it is. the screen is not lit up.... so similar to a book you have to use a booklight or read in a well-lit area. because the screen is unlit it does NOT hurt your eyes! I'm telling you it's really clear.... I'll try to take a picture of it for you.

I'm super excited. LaDonna is there a color selection (Like pink, purple, white) or do they just come in one color?
