The ad with the grandmother and grandson is very nice. I loved getting books for Christmas and my birthdays (still do) so I think I would have loved to have had one of these eReaders when I was a youngster - so many books all at one's finger tips. I didn't abuse my books so don't think I would have abused my eReader either, but the Kindle is certainly more delicate than a paper back or hard back book. A lot of eBooks, however, (except for the many public domain eBooks) are expensive and I wouldn't have had the money to buy them (or "real" books for that matter) as a kid. I loved going to the library and bringing home 10 books (the limit in those days) at a time, though, so could imagine loading up the Kindle with lots of free books.
