One of the good things about twitter is that you connect with someone who can direct you to something you've been looking for.
Wayne Schulz happened to mention that he loved his Amazon Kindle and upon further tweeting, he directed me to his site where there is an indepth review of this reader. Thanks, Wayne!
I have one and it’s fantastic.
And I suppose the price of books is about the same as what I pay on average between library sales and Amazon. But with a couple hundred books to read here, I’ll likely stick to the old-fashioned paper rather than plastic versions.
