So they are actually as good as books? I confess to being quite sceptical about them, maybe because I prefer things printed out... Also, I own too many computers already ;) Glad to hear you're enjoying it! Are many books available for it now, then?

As good as books...oh yes definitely. I think it is easier to hold than a book and just more comfortable to hold.

Another reason I have not bought any books lately is what to do with them after I read them? I could not just throw them out and I'm just too lazy to go to trade them in at a "used" book store. The kindle can hold 1,000s of novels in the memory, so no need to warry about what to do after I'm through reading the book.

Amazaon site state this about the selection:
"Large Selection: Over 275,000 books plus U.S. and international newspapers, magazines, and blogs available

Low Book Prices: New York Times Best Sellers and New Releases $9.99, unless marked otherwise."

The SGA novel I purchase was $6.95.

I'm so glad you are pleased! I am jealous, and the 'Monet" choice looks so soothing for a skin. Enjoy!

Thanks!! I'm hoping that the 'Monet' skin kinda fades into the background so not to distract me from the screen while reading.

I do believe if it is a good enough book, you can forget everything around you, just for a little while, I know I do...
