Now I know, and it sounds amazing. I'm always lugging books with me on vacation, or buying them in the airport. This could solve those problems, and also give me something to say when anyone asks me what I want for my birthday, or Christmas.

But the Kindle is like my portable library. The one I can take with me wherever I go...and easily...1500 books worth!<br /><br />=)Susan Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16049586085703324088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-81195862421018105332009-06-11T08:42:52.905-07:002009-06-11T08:42:52.905-07:00Natalie- I do agree that there is nothing like the...Natalie- I do agree that there is nothing like the feel of a book in your hands. And I love the smell and feel of a book, too...and am quite addicted to libraries in general, but a Kindle is just another jewel in the literary crown as far as I can see. Having an iPod doesn't make me less committed to live music, when I can get it. And the real thing is always best. But what I like about a kindle is that i can carry so many books with me at one time. (It will hold 1500). Also, I can get books for less than half the price. What's more, I can find out of print books and download them with just a flick of the finger. Believe me, I am in no way a techy...quite the opposite, but I do love this Kindle. However, I did not get the new one, which is too large for my liking. I got the Kindle 2 and would not recommend the large one for someone who is just wanting to read and have it feel as much like a regular book as possible. (I guess the large, new size is better for textbooks...as the size accommodates spread sheets better, etc.)Susan Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16049586085703324088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-65803643285895814552009-06-11T04:37:20.401-07:002009-06-11T04:37:20.401-07:00Ok, I can't lie...it's not the ONLY thing....Ok, I can't lie...it's not the ONLY thing. I am a little weird when it comes to the hottest trends (whether it's a tech gadget, book, movie...doesn't matter). I feel like I have to wait a year or more before I can get into whatever it it. For example...still haven't read or watched DaVinci Code....just because everyone thinks I should. I know it's ridiculous, I'm sure to be missing out on fantastic stuff! As I write this, I'm realizing I'm proud...I like feeling as though I'm "above" the hooplah of things that everyone else jumps to praise.<br /><br />Oh my gosh, I feel sick right now!!! I need to change my wicked ways...this is completely embarrassing! SHAME ON ME!!!<br /><br />So should my first step to ridding myself of such disgusting pride be to purchase Kindle????Snarky Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17893940815826970998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-37668053827281897322009-06-11T04:31:07.888-07:002009-06-11T04:31:07.888-07:00This is very interesting to me because I love the ...This is very interesting to me because I love the feel of a book in my hands. The smell, the dog-eared pages, etc. Just everything about the way it feels.<br />Do you miss those things at all?
