O.k., if you own one, I am interested in listening to what you have to say.

Is it worth? Is it not?

Thanks,

Too expensive; I'm waiting for it to have more competition.

Clearly it's a fantastic product especially for students but I have quite a few conventional books to get through.

Very good argument.

However, do you foresee competing devices having access to the
database and prices of Amazon?

Aren't e-Books more expensive now than normal books?
Also, it pisses me off that I can't lend the book to friends and family if I really liked it, except if I'm willing to part with my Kindle.

Well, Amazon isn't a publisher, nor does it set industry prices, so I don't see a problem.

I hear you.

I am a romantic who prefers the feel and fragrance of books, too.

But, hey, I said the same about postcards and emails.

And, moreover, Christmas is coming and during the holidays I turn
into a consumerist whore.
