A coworker who owns a Kindle 1 spied the Kindle 2 on my desk in its Amazon cover and knew instantly what it was. Another coworker feared that I was carrying a Bible around with me. To my eye, the dimensions aren't quite right for even a New Testament. (What about a Book of Mormon, though? Hmm.)
I carry it everywhere downtown. I read it on park benches and in restaurants. No one else has uttered a peep about it. Sometimes, when I'm carrying it at my side, people look at it a little saucer-eyed. Maybe there is something to the Bible-appearance thing.
