Stumbled upon this forum and decided to stick around and see what I can learn. I received my Kindle 2i as a Christmas gift... My stinker husband had me researching it for his father for Christmas! Turns out he never intended to get it for his Dad (who he thinks is too technologically challenged); but, had me researching my own gift!

Anyhow, I'm a book fiend and I believe my DH bought me the Kindle out of self preservation. With over 3,000 DTBs in my collection, I think he was afraid he was going to get squished right out of the house! Now that I have the Kindle, he is gradually acquiring more and more elbow room as I purge the DTBs and replace them with the electronic version.

And my book hoarding continues... I already have over 800 books on my Kindle. Thank goodness for Project Gutenburg or we would have been bankrupt by now!
