Think the eBook discussion focuses too heavily on the tactile differences with print? Over at Booksquare, it’s OK to let digital books be different from paper books. I agree.
Now…about that bacon smell, you just might have something there, Kassia.

I’ve had my Kindle 2 since it came out in Feb. 2009, and I really like it. It’s great for the books that I mainly read which are History, Biography and assorted novels.
As for feel, I like it. It’s light, and great for reading in bed and for travel. It has a great cover and night light that I bought along with it. I can bring many books with me when I head off to work or travel.
It’s not great for books that have a lot of graphics. I also wouldn’t want to use them for researching, i.e. if you are flipping back and forth a lot looking for something.
The down loading of books is very easy and the prices are pretty good. I buy a lot of books from Costco at about $15-$25 range, I figure I’ll save some money buy the digital copies in the $10 range it. There is a lot of free content out there for public domain books also.
Over all pretty good product.
