Kindle 2 is very sweet
I turned 50 recently and one of the benefits was I received a Kindle 2
as a present. Thank you to all those who contributed toward it.
The Kindle 2 has been my favorite toy since. I love reading. I love books from all kinds of genres. However, I don't like paying for them. The Library is a favorite place of mine, because I can find all forms of literature at the price I like. My habits have changed some with the Kindle. I get a daily newspaper delivered every morning except on Sunday and Monday. It is the Investor's Business Daily
so it only comes the days after a market close. Saturday is the day the Monday paper actually comes. I also get Investor's Business Daily
on my Kindle. For it I pay $1.99 a month. I like getting content pushed to me daily. I also get the Amazon Daily
blog, which is a very good blog. Amazon Daily is free. The advantage of having a blog pushed to your Kindle is that you can navigate it very quickly and don't have to wait for the browser to refresh.
, but I would surely like to. I am the type of person that owns shelves of books. Many of them are reference books. I like to be able to find knowledge and I like to have it at my fingertips. The internet is a great resource for that (although caution is recommended). I would love to be able to carry a library around in my satchel. It would be nice to be able to grab a newspaper or blog wherever I am and read it, too. A number of obstacles has always prevented ebook readers from success. One is that people don't like reading lots of content on screens. Another is the availability of materials in the device format can be a problem. 
has seemingly addressed both of those concerns. The Kindle screen is supposedly very reader friendly. And the volume of titles Amazon can make available to the reader is something they should have no problem providing. Amazon has already started to digitize many of the books they make available for purchase on their site. This is merely another step in that direction.
