kindle

I'm sort of tempted by a Kindle 2 - I'm at the airport once a week at least, and I like to travel light. The idea of being able to get newspapers etc onto my device that I can read without hitting the guy next to me is very appealing, and there are a lot of docs that I would like access to...

Where you can download movies onto it (legally, using a credit card) and play movies on the device.

New version bring more storage, longer battery life - but still not available outside the U.S. </img> </img> </img> </img> </img> </img>

Does it work good? What is it like? Have you had any problems? Easy to use? Battery Life?

I'm considering buying one, and it would probably make me cease buying tangible books-that is, if my high school would allow me to use it.

Im going to buy the amazon kindle 2 regardless... but id really like to know if i can buy my textbooks on it... if u have the first one or have heard anything about it... it would really help thanks :)

Kindle is a walking encyclopedia, and runs off of signals like phones do....however live where there's not always a signal (south of seattle). With a sony, you have do download books on a computer first. does anyone have a kindle in this area? and how well does it work? I'm going for convience...

Can I still order it even though it's "sold out"?

Are there any hidden charges? How many books can it hold? and How much are the books to download? Is it really better than going to the library or buying books?

stood me up? Please read the following story, which contains details which I think they are relevant to the question at hand... For the last year or so I have been flirting with a very attractive Mexican woman (about 21 years old) at the local taco shop every time I went into purchase food...

Is there any way to use a local library to 'borrow' a book onto an eReader?

So, because you can't get a Kindle from Amazon until forever, I am going to buy one from eBay but all of the descriptions say "new REFURBISHED!" what does this mean? will it be the same as new? Should I spend 370$ on this?

Are there any websites out there that will give you a discount off the e-book for owning the real book or vice-versa? I'd like to have the real copy and the electronic copy. Can the kindle take any e-book format and what about free e-book websites?

Is the Amazon Kindle good value for money? It is quite expensive :( What about cheaper EBook readers, are they just as good? http://www.digitpedia.com/ebook-reader-cellphones-which-used-most-reading-ebooks/2508/
