I can lend a book to whomever I want as long as I want or even GIVE it to them
I can throw a book down on the table or carry it any way I want without worrying about breaking it
It takes the average person 20% longer to read a book on a kindle (fact)
the average paperback is cheaper
I can adjust the type size by putting on my reading glasses
You can't even up a table leg by putting a kindle under it
You put a bookmark in it and can open it to the same page you left off at every time
I don't have to buy a toy for $140 which only does what I can already do for free with my books, read them, and
then I donate them so others who can't afford books can read them....without a kindle
MOST importantly, I am not held hostage by a single bookseller
