Interesting.  And will be very interesting to see how they hold up to
the possible heavy usage (or the possible no usage).

Also interesting to note that they formerly lent iPods with audiobooks
and a different ebook reader.  I wonder if they've ever reported on
the success or failure on those projects.

And how will the users know what books are on what kindle?  Will they
catalog them, or will it just be potluck?
