I am a lurker that is trying to make a decision on whether to buy a Kindle or not.

I would welcome any responses on any pros and cons that there is out there.
Right now, I am battling my x-2 about there being some hidden costs out there because we are on a set income. However, I can see some real advantages to downloading some books rather than paying the full price for them.
ANY RESPONSES ARE WELCOME!
