kindle

As a bibliophile and technophile, I’m pretty intrugued with the idea of Amazon’s new Kindle e-reader. I’ve never been that interested in e-readers before but this one seems to capture some features that would make it more appealing — wireless shopping and downloading from anywhere, and reduced pricing on books where you are paying only for content and not packaging.

I doubt I’m going to be able to find $400 to carve out of the family budget anytime soon for one of these, but it’s a product I’ll be keeping my eye on as it moves into it’s second or third generation.
