The Kindle
My sister got me the kindle for my birthday, and I’m currently in the process of returning it. I deliberated a lot over the decision to keep or return it, as it’s an exciting tool to unknown and use, but does it really fit into my lifestyle?
The books that I would buy are each $9.99, which is way more than I usually spend on books. I’m quite thrifty rght now, as I’m not currently working. I get my books from the library, and when possible, book sales for $5 or less.
If I buy something in the future, it would be Apple IPad, which also allows you to surf the web. The price tag is hefty, but I think it would be more worth my while.
Not that there aren’t plenty of free sites that offer kindle books. It just looks like too much trouble to deal with.
I’d welcome feedback from kindle 2 and dx users – I’m curious to hear what others think!
