Thanks everyone for your input. I chose to get the Kindle. I already ordered it. Won't get to play with it till Dec

I doubt I will be rushing to upgrade when Kindle 2 comes out. I didn't upgrade to a newer iPod yet. It plays my music, and videos too. My Kindle will display my books, and will do many other things. It won't do them any less if a new one comes out. I believe I should be content with a Kindle 1.0 for quite some time!
