I think I'm addicted!
Howdy fellow readers. I just bought the Kindle 2 a few days ago. I have to review 75 research proposals for a US government federal funding agency and couldn't stand the thought of all that ink and paper going to waste, hence a mobile ebook reader sounded like the ticket! I am having so much fun with this thing, I am now reading Vonnegut's Cat Cradle with it, and have subscribed to the New York Times. Now what was the original reason for the kindle....?

Hello A & welcome to MobileRead. I'm very fond of my Kindle and read on it as much as possible. If you haven't found them yet, there are *tons* of classic books -- and some released under a creative commons license -- available right here at MobileRead. Just click the "E-Books" link in the blue bar at the top of the page.
We're glad you've joined us at MobileRead. |

A's Kindle, all it takes is once. Addiction is guaranteed but the pleasure never fades. Enjoy it!

Good to have your company, A. It's always great when a new member comes along with excitement over a new device rather than frustration (mind you, that can usually be easily fixed with some simple advice here). Best wishes. Neil
