Strange Reactions to Kindle

As shocking as it may seem to us, some people STILL don't get the whole kindle/e-reading revolution. Sometimes I get blank stares or hear snickering in the background when I'm using it. I wish I could just give one to everyone so they could understand how awesome it is.

Do you get people asking you all the time why you decided to get yourself a Kindle? I never feel like I have the right answer to satisfy them. No matter if I tell them how easy it is to get books at low prices and read them without eye-strain, I get weird responses like "Yeah but not that many people have a Kindle," as if that is proof of anything. I even had someone say to me once, "I want to get a kindle, but I just don't like to read."

How do people react when they hear about your Kindle or see you using it? What do people do when they are suddenly confronted with the reality of ebooks?
