I work a full-time+, have a family and still manage 2-4 books a week depending on the size and other things going on.
I'm a speed reader (by nature not trained)..its like I subconsciously scan a paragraph/page and decide what words to read. I find that the spacing on the Kinde 1 facilitates this style of reading so that I am reading more than ever.
If I am engrossed in a book, I find it hard to put down often foresaking what I should be doing (including sleep).
This also means I will probably never adapt to the eWorld when it comes to detailed documents and textbooks where word-for-word comprehension is required. I find myself having to read those in paper so I can highlight/take notes to slow my reading and focus.
My retired mom, who is also a Kindle owner, probably reads twice as much.
