Anyone have one?


My wife has Kindle 1 and loves it. Quick downloads. She thinks Kindle
2 will read to you, but she's happy with what she's got.

Nomdeplume would probably want K2 given her reading capabilities.

He's smitten with you. That his love goes unrequieted is driving him
mad! Or in his case, madder.

She probably reads just fine, But her final analysis on everything
always boils down to hugs and kisses for Obama.

My wife thinks she wants a kindle 2. I heard a sample of the voice and
to me it sounded like a crappy Microsoft speech engine. Also I heard
there is still a problem with inadvertent page turning which leads to
the "Where the f%$k was I dilemma". Barnes and Noble just came out with
some competition for the Kindle, which is in short supply till after the
holidays.
I just downloaded Brown's new book on MP3 for her to try out audio
books. Which leads into the next subject, FM transmitters. My Crane came
in yesterday and I'll be trying it out today if things go well.

I heard a comparison of the BandN one to the Kindle on the radio last
week. But, as I had no interest in either, I paid no attention to
which was best, worst, or whatever.

Perhaps there's a review or two online...maybe one of the computer
mags?

Luckily, I live very close to a library which has a great automated
'hold' system, so I'm always able to get books I want.

bathrooms.
