Still getting used to reading e-book. I kinda like my book being squashed under my pillow and stuff.
Are you getting one? Let us know what you think when you have played with it a little. I read a bit and I wonder if I can get use to it.
Wow I didn’t realise things like this existed!
I was all excited until I saw the price!

Amazon’s ebook reader looks great. Like the sound of the audio book feature! Would like to look at one before purchase though.
