Same for me except that I occasionally will grab a book that I may want to read in the future because its free or the price has dropped very low. But overall, I have saved a lot of money because I don't impulse buy (like I used to at the stores) and use the sample feature.
The pricing and content is what made me pick the Kindle over the Sony. But now that I bought my non-tech mother a Kindle a Kindle, I love that I can share books with her Whispernet.
