This is my Kindle. Wayne gave it to me for our anniversary last June. I had been weighing the pros and cons of having one and hadn't yet decided what I wanted to do when he surprised me with it. And, I love it! I've always been a fast reader so when I travel I carry a bag full of books with me (seriously - usually a minimum of 4 and often as many as 10, depending on how long the trip is). Now, when I travel I carry 10 to 15 books all in this one little book! And, if I should just happen to run out of books to read (or think of something new I'd like to read instead of what I have) I can purchase a new book and it downloads to my Kindle instantly!
There are some drawbacks. Even though there's a running percentage that tells me how much of the book I've read, I am very visual and find it less informative to have a percentage than the visual of seeing how much of the book I have left. I also like to look back at parts of the book I've already read to check on names, etc. and I find that difficult with the Kindle. I'm getting used to those two things, though, and have decided I LOVE my Kindle.
