My daughter bought me a Kindle for xmas.....I hated to tell her to return it...she bought it because she knows I love books...I love to read.....but its like you said, I need to hold the book and turn the pages.. Reading off a Kindle .....there is just something not real about that.....guess I am just as old fashion Mr Orithil!!!!!!!!!!!

whenever I order a book I try to get an old library copy... there's just something special to me about the smell and feel of a well read book!

EDIT: the kindle would be nice to give some of my warn books a break! maybe help them last longer :)

I tried using it but there was a very un natural feeling about it.....It didn't take long for me to reject the darn thing. My wife and daughters say I am a bookoholic...ha ha.

We planted one from Home Depot last year, it had 3 fruits growing when we put it in the ground, one made it to maturity, and man, and flavor, it could make you come in your pants. It's starting the year with about 30 fruits already. I cant wait.

Dog-earing your Kindle does violence to the warranty. They should have at least kept the legacy OS. If you can't smuggle fast food napkins home in it, it ain't a read. cn
