I saved Amazon points until I had enough for a Kindle. I've had it for about a week now. I love to read the classics. Our library recently got rid of most of their classics. I had a heck of a time last winter when I was trying to find Oscar Wilde and Somerset Maugham. I found a few in the used bookstore. The free classic ebooks books are amazing. I did pay a little for some of the Mobi-formatted ones. I've only bought one new book (I Shall Wear Midnight, by Terry Pratchett) because I can't find it around here and I couldn't wait to read it. I like having a book in my purse or bike trunk. The Kindle fits nicely. I'll never not have paper books. I do like the portability of the Kindle. I'm working out how to get some of my knitting patterns on it for travel.
