Kindle is here
I now have had the Kindle for about a week. It is a wondrous toy.
I am able to read the paper on the train to the newsroom for the first time. Spreading out the Wall Street Journal before this has been a little cumbersome.
I am able to carry what amounts to about 25 books with me currently, although I am only reading about two.
I am also able to see previews of a number of books that are on my Wishlist at Amazon, especially some that i haven't been able to see at a real store.
Now if only I can get all of the books that I want to read onto the Kindle. I have been clicking on the new Amazon links that tell the publisher to put their book in Kindle format.
Bring on more books.
Three more weeks until my vacation. I fully expect to see my usage of the device go through the roof.
