I wanted the Kindle the instant I saw it. I have been reading ebooks on my Macbook for over a year in PDF. I purchased books from Fictionwise for over 3 years and read off my desktop. As a Apple product user I'm used to paying high prices for my toys but I refused to pay $400 for something so ugly, yes it is, but broke down a year later when I was able to get one for $300. I use it every day but it's still ugly. I would love to know how many units were sold in its first year. I wish Apple would make a reader but Steve Jobs said that not enough people read to make it worth while. I hope he's pulling my leg.
