I was at the airport and one gentleman saw my Kindle and told me how much he loved paper books. I said "I can respect that" and opened the Kindle store. He noticed my typing and asked what I was doing. I told him buying the next book in the Wheel of Time series so I could read it on the plane. Then I said "Done" and opened the book. His jaw hit the ground.

Great story - love it!
I have great respect for paper books and still for some genres (children's illustrated / pop-up books, recipe books, art books) they cannot be beaten. But it is pretty amazing being able to carry your entire library around with you and have the facility to search all your books in one go and buy new ones on the fly.
Sorry to go off topic - and enjoy your new Kindle OP
