Well, like many others, I received a Kindle 2 for Christmas, and have been having fun learning what is can (and cannot!) do for me. And the jury is still out, as I am deciding whether or not to return it. So far, it has not enabled me to enjoy reading any books that I'd like to read; I just don't want to buy an eBook just yet until I have decided this is the way for me. And I have learned that I cannot check out ebooks from the library!! I checked several out, but I can only read them on my computer. What's the use of having a portable Kindle if I am tethered to the computer to read ebooks?

Anyway, thought I'd join the forum, and perhaps be convinced I should keep it? I may start another thread in finding a way to check out ebooks from the library.

Thanks!
