Rating : - Kindle reader
I am so happy with my Kindle. I wasn't 100% certain I would like an e-reader over holding the real thing in my hands but I am completely sold. I do some traveling to visit my grandsons and camping. With the Kindle I can take a supply of books and not take up alot of space. It's so easy to read and lighter than the hardcover books. I will be even happier when they rollout the Kindle for MAC software so I can read on my computer at home. I highly recommend it to everyone and you skeptics -- give it a try!
