The only thing I don’t like about the Kindle so far, as compared to real books, is that it’s harder to thumb back through the pages to refresh your memory on an earlier passage.

w.r.t. ebooks: some people like ‘em, some loathe ‘em. I have the Kindle App for my ipod touch & devour books like no tomorrow with it. I was hesitant at first, but I changed the background to black & text to white, & find it a lot easier to read with.

I travel a lot for work, 3-5 weeks at a time, with nothing to do other than work, read, sleep; the Kindle App has saved my hide numerous times. On a very (VERY) slow project in W. Africa, I downloaded & read 23 books on the Kindle App in 32 days…it beat surfin’ the web or re-reading the same issue of a French-language newspaper everyday.

N. Parry, if you have an ipod touch/iphone/android, the app is free & you can typically download classic books for free to give it a try, at least…

If you don’t want to spring for a Kindle or a Nook, get an eReader app for your phone and buy this book. You’ll be extremely glad you did.
