Still a huge improvement over having to own a Kindle to buy from the Kindle store, right?

While reading on a pc isn't the best experience, I"m having a good time reading on my Asus. Screen is larger, font still adjustable, and no eye strain.
Yep, you got it. I'm thinking that "yet" is going to be coming fairly soon, now, though.
I'm enjoying reading on my Acer, too - and the compatibility, especially now with Kindle for PC, is hard to beat. I can read anything from anywhere, and I'm LOVING that aspect of the whole thing.
