I am highlighting mental! My Bible is very much falling apart from all the times I've folded it, scribbled in the margins, highlighted passages, underlined words, stuck post-it notes to the margins and even printed out whole articles and stuffed them between pages. My text books aren't far off being in the exact same condition! (I've frightened people who have asked to borrow them!) I can't read something without writing in it, or in some way 'politely defacing' it, unless I really don't like it.
I only read fiction on my Kindle due to not only a severe lack of industry-specific (exercise science) material being available electronically -- and, more importantly, from my retailer of choice; but also due to my real dissatisfaction with the non-fiction ebook experience. As a chronic 'page-rifler', it leaves much to be desired. However, I'll often find at least two lines per book which I want to highlight, anyway. For that, the Kindle's built-in highlighting feature is perfectly sufficient.
