I really want to get an E-Ink Reader - Page 2

cerement · 04-24-2008, 05:02 PM

Well, got the Kindle yesterday, and have only been playing with it for about half a day.

So far, I'm actually in love with the stupid thing ... it has a personality (or as much of one as any inanimate device can). It doesn't have that over-designed sterile feel that Sony products have.

It is still ugly, but it's ugly in a good way ;P ... What makes it not-so-ideal aesthetically speaking is its ergonomics, it is very comfortable to hold (far more so than even the Sony Reader).

Have you actually tried the 505? I find the ergonomics much nicer then witht he previous 500.
