I must say, having spent some time with this device kindled a spark in me. I loved the lightness of it (and the newer generation is even smaller and lighter), the ease of the interface (something else that has been improved on in the newer generation, as I understand), the ability to purchase books instantly and to preview them before purchasing them, the flexibility of the display, and the feel of it in my hands.
I was concerned that it would bother me that it is not easy to figure out where the next break in a book’s action is (a section break or a chapter break), something I like to know when I read because I often read within time constraints and need to make decisions about whether to continue or stop where I am. But this didn’t bother me when I tried Kelly’s Kindle. It is very easy to mark one’s place (something much more difficult if one stops mid-way in a section and uses bookmarks, as I do, and the Kindle tells you how much of the book you have read.
I am excited to get my own Kindle. We are going on vacation shortly before my next birthday, and the plan is for me to have my present in time for the vacation. I can hardly wait to get my very own Kindle!
