odd.
Still see no need for the wireless access in a book reader. I've read several novels on my 505 now and I LOVE it. The ONLY thing missing from my 505 (IMHO) is a searchable dictionary. Oh, BTW, I love that PS3.....there are some really fantastic games out for it now with many more on the way......plus it absolutely ROCKS as a blu-ray player. It's also nice to know that blu-ray will win the war against HD-DVD ......that did have me a little worried for a bit there.

Hey.....to each his own....I love electronic gadgets.....and aesthetics does play a role.....a small one....but a role non the less (for me).

I haven't received mine yet but I can't wait to be able to surf the web with this at lunch after I am done reading a chapter or two.. and thats just the first reason., on the can....
Good luck surfing the net on a Kindle Have you read the reviews about actually trying to surf with that thing? I'll keep my Nokia N800 for that (and It looks cool to boot ) I've got room for 160 novles on just the built in memory.....why would I possibly need to download a novel on the fly?
