Kindle

My wonderful co-workers gave me a gift card to Amazon for my birthday with the suggestion that I get a Kindle. Their suggestion stemmed from my love for reading and my ever-growing collection of books. So, I did lots of online reading on the different options available, read newspaper articles, talked to friends, etc. After several weeks of considerations, I decided to purchase a Kindle. In contemplating how much I would use it and the types of books I'm looking to read, I went with the basic model (wi-fi only). 
It arrived yesterday and last night I spent over an hour playing with it and reading the manual. I'm not a tech-savvy person (that's why I have friends) so there are still some features I haven't figured out yet. So far, I'm very pleased with my purchase and will probably write additional posts the more I use it. If you're interested in purchasing a Kindle, just visit Amazon and read the reviews!
