I just want to be able to load books (mainly what I download from sites like Gutenberg and buy off the net with my PC) and read them without too much eye strain thus saving all the trees I have to cut down to print them out.

Thanks

I just bought the Kindle 2 from Amazon... The price was AUD363.80 including leather case and delivery... I ordered it last Tuesday, and it was in Brisbane yesterday... I'll get it delivered on Monday... My Hanvon which I bought from oo.com.au (which is supposed to be a very cheap store) cost Aud357 including vinyl case and delivery. This took just a long to get here.

The Hanvon is 5" display, and the Kindle2 is 6"... I think buying from the USA at the moment, is better for the pocket than buying from Australia.
