I got the first ebook in our family last August (the newly launched K3). Then my daughter saw it and liked it so she was given one for Christmas. Recently, my son and daughter-in-law went for one each.

My husband, despite an engineering degree and a computery background is always a late adopter of technology. Basically he waits until there is someone to tell him how to do it. He pooh-poohed the idea of wanting an ereader. But I sneakily installed Kindle for PC on his laptop and have sent him copies of various books from my lot that I thought he'd like. So then he decided he'd like a Kindle for his birthday. But that's not until nearly the end of the year.

He's just finished reading a book I sent to his laptop and although he enjoyed it he admitted it wasn't easy for reading in the loo. So now, finally, I've ordered him his own K3.

I look forward to being able to share books, as we've always done with the dt sort. Now we really can get rid of most of the latter!
