[Web4lib] Amazon's Kindle e-book reader

[KLINGLER, THOMAS]

>>list members rapidly tire of them


I suppose "rapidly" is a relative thing.....

I, for one, have been awaiting someone to comment, like sometimes
happens,  on the appropriateness to this list, or not, of this topic on
textual, non-web, books loaded, not via the web, on a stand-alone,
not-web-connected device.....

Not this list member -- I especially appreciated reading Dee Ann 
Allison's comments as an actual owner. I will say that, for something 
widely reported to suck, it sure gets a lot of attention.
