Hi Herb,
I know of one person among my reader friends who wants one of these things.
They are pretty expensive I think.
It does seem like it would be great for somebody who travels a lot, especially traveling constantly for business and spending life in airports and on planes.
I don't want one right now. I like having actual books around, and I have to wonder about how often the battery goes dead.
So anyway, I really don't know anything about the Kindle. It is an interesting idea though, just probably not something I would like.
Heck, I would probably drop it and smash it into smithereens. And many years ago, I dropped "The Shining" in the bathtub. I had to dry it with a blow dryer and the pages were all wavy forever after. (I did get out of the bathtub before using the blow dryer.) Also, I used to have a dog who chewed up a book or two. Actually though, I believe dogs do that because the glue smells so good to them and they think it is delicious. I guess Kindles don't have glue anywhere.
Oh well, I need to stop sitting here this morning, drinking coffee, and thinking up "WORST CASE SCENARIOS!" for potential dangers to a Kindle if one came into my life.
If you get one, please let us know how you like it.
