What's a Kindle?
You not hear its the latest type of dildo.....It sends mild electrical impulses....A real sensory fucking explosion man......
What's a Kindle?
At the end of the day...if a piece of electronics gets people excited about books and reading then I'm all for it.
Alas...I love my physical books too much to ever replace them with a video screen.
Scrolling down a list on a screen will never be as satisfying as browsing through my bookcases.

Wow! We have found the person what don't know what kindle be!!!What's a Kindle?
More functional? Open book read turn page read etc etc. How much more functional can they get?!? :dunno:Having so many books in one place is very handy. makes flipping between interests very easy.
I'll not be giving up books, but for the majority of my reading interests, Kindle versions are simply easier to obtain, cheaper and more functional.

But I don't need any of that (group commons highlighting and discussion points?) I just want to read the book I currently have in my hand. The kindle doesn't serve my needs.Fewer resources used, less physical storage space, less fragile (yes, plastic is more resistant than paper to damp, tearing etc), instant dictionary look ups across multiple editions, all cataloging and author information in one space, group commons highlighting and discussion points, better indexing ....
I could go on, but it might not be literal enough for you.:hatsoff:

My sister has one and raves about it. I've thought about getting one but love my paper books. I have a ton of books I've bought just this past year and still haven't read. Having them all on one portable device does sound tempting.
When I am in the bath I get my butler to read books to me over my internal house intercom so I don't risk any water based incidents. By a weird coincidence his name is Mr Kelvingston Indle.That's fair enough.
It's not a replacement, I think - yet .. well, not until they make a waterproof one so I can read in the bath. Books definitely have the advantage there: they dry out!
