I'm totally Kindle Krazy. My Smart Wife and I were given one for Christmas last year and this year I gave MSW her own because sharing didn't work for us. No fights, just impatience to play with the new toy more.
A word about the Kindle reading experience: It does not replace the book. We've got thousands of books and will never stop buying and reading more, until we're like crazy old farts threading our way around the house through ceiling high mounds and piles and pyramids of books. But the Kindle has made reading different. If anything, I'm reading more now than ever before. I've got short story collections, anthologies, poetry, magazines and dozens of novels old and new on the Kindle; it's like having a personal "Best of" portable library, stocked with favorite authors and potential favorites. Simply put - it's a lot of fun. Find a friend that has one and if you can pry it from her fingers, try it out. You'll want one.
And you can add Neil to your personal library, too. I just checked and right now, you can get Shakey, which you should already own anyway. But if you've got a Kindle and want it right now, you can get it for less than the paperback. Hopefully there'll be more titles available soon, but for me Shakey is worth ten bucks just for info on the recording of Zuma. Very freaky.
Is it just me, or in the picture above, do those hands look like feet the more you stare at them?
