I don’t have a Kindle but have the Sony version.

It was not something I would have bought (it was a gift) but I think it’s a great idea for RVers who are short on space. To me though, there is nothing that can replace a real book - the smell, the ability to scan through all the pages before you read, the ability to flip back and forth easily between pages……..can’t be done with an e-reader.

Now along with the huge stack of books I have to read, I also have at least a 100 to read on my e-reader. Now I’ll never catch up.

You are in charge of your content. If you don’t like Amazon, buy DRM free books elsewhere. Or just read the million or so public domain titles available for free.

If you want bestsellers, though, you are tied (somewhat) to Amazon. But you pick what you read (Amazon wants you to read it ALL, it maximizes profit). Small price to pay for reading it 30 seconds after having the idea (and no gas to drive to the library or bookstore).

hi - i run an amazon kindle blog theKindle.wordpress.com and viewership has been climbing steadily and I’m actually launching a social network for kindle owners and book lovers.
We’re in pre-Alpha right now with the Alpha Release on 21st July (we’ll also be moving to a more book friendly url).
Would appreciate it if you could join and give some feedback.
More details at the Social Network for Kindle Owners, including ‘3 Free Kindles in the first 3 months’ promotion and other information.
