Day 2 with the reader. Will likely use for reading pdf journal articles. My concern is that my public library does not have many of the ebook titles I would like to read and 9.99/book will get expensive. I also wish there was a way to load my reader with my digital magazine and newspaper subscriptions which will come with the Daily. My store did not have silver so I went with black. My concern is that the black border will get tiresome after a while. Also felt 299 + tax was a bit steep considering you could get a netbook for that price. Also, in a few months, as usual there will be better readers to buy.. gadgets always expire the second after you buy them...
Despite all this, it is a gorgeous technology and will save me from carrying loads of printed articles and hardcover books.
