I guess I'm a little out of touch, because I had never heard of the Amazon Kindle until tonight. I just happened to check the Amazon.com site, and there it was!
I'm only a big gadget person when it relates to my work or my favorite hobbies, but right now I'm experiencing major gadget lust. I want one of these things so bad!
I do love "real" books, but they have their limits. I like the idea of being able to take one little unit with me when I go places, yet have access to virtually any digital book I want.
Of course, I have to keep the cost in mind... Not only the $399 price tag (ouch!), but also the fact that it would probably cause me to start buying more books than ever, rather than getting most of my reading material at the library as I do now.
