I have been reading up on the new release of the Kindle and personally I don't know anyone that owns one (besides Oprah). What's the deal? Does anyone own one and if so, why?
PDA? What's that? =)
Zach Morris called he wants his PDA back.

Well, I can't really call it a cell phone because it's more than a phone. How about portable computer phone? PCP. I like it.
Edit: After further review, smart phone is the proper term. Carry on.
I totally want a Kindle.
It's different from a PDA because it has electronic ink, and the ability to download books in minutes from the Amazon store. It's the size of a paperback, so you're not confined to staring at a small PDA screen.
I understand that a PDA can do much more, but people who buy a Kindle buy it because it does one thing, and does it well.
Buy me one!!!!!
What the hell is Amazon Kindle?
Who do you think I am...Oprah?
"You're getting a Kindle, YOU'RE getting a Kindle, YOU'RE getting a Kindle!!!!!!!"
What if I said that you're bigger than Oprah?
I do need to lose some weight.
Have you seen Oprah lately? She has relapsed.
(At least that's what the magazines in the grocery store checkout tell me.)

I sat next to a woman on an airplane and was totally looking over as she was reading it. I finally had to ask how she liked it and she had me impressed. I'm holding back a little because of the pricetag, but about ready to take the plunge.
+ The screen is not back-lit, so you can read it outside in daylight (like a book you need light shining on it)
+ It's lightweight and slimline no lugging thick paperbacks
+ you can download any book with its wireless connection
+ The battery lasts many hours.

I played with one for a little while a couple weeks ago. It seems like, for the price, you might as well get a laptop. I can do everything that Kindle can do on my laptop, and the Kindle can't do 1/10th of the stuff I can do on my laptop.
