Yeah, I have to keep myself from opening the Kindle at a traffic light too. I'd get so involved, I'd miss the green and probably get rear-ended. Not good!

I read in bed, in the bath and in coffee shops and restaurants. I get extremely frustrated when I have left it on the bedside table and not taken it with me in the morning.

Bed and the couch mainly. Will definitely read the hell out of it on plane trips (just got it after my latest trip unfortunatley).

I'm a righty but I usually hold the Kindle and paper books in my left.

I read all over the place now, but in the house my favorite spots are in bed (I just fall asleep too quickly most nights) and on the chaise in the living room. As the weather warms up though I'll spend more time out on the deck by the pool - I am so ready for spring!
Love to whip it out to read at fast food places too. And count me in as a bathroom reader.

I love reading my kindle right before going to sleep. Find a good novel, and relax in bed

Left hand.

Bed and couch.

Also at my desk at work.... it is good to be the King!

I like to read in a coffee shop or airport so that I can show it off :P

In bed, on the dumper, at work while waiting for my crew. I load my own work reference material so that it is always available. It's the most useful device I own.

Okay.....5 days now.... I love my Kindle.... I like reading in the bed, couch, massage chair.....but my favorite place has to be as a passanger in the golf cart while my hubby plays... Good quality time.... I like being outdoors and in the past, it was annoying trying to hold the book, keep pages from flipping etc.... The Kindle sat on my lap (when we stopped) and I finished almost an entire book , while he completed 18 holes... VERY NICE...

I can read almost anywhere, but I absolutely love reading in a quite, relaxing place (I know, I know, who doesn't?) My ideal place would be a nice coffee shop, because I love the smell of coffee

When I went to Japan last August, I did end up reading 5 books while waiting in airports and flying haha. Surprisingly, I read 2 printed books, and the other 3 on my Sony Reader.

Golf should not be so relaxing. You should play golf with him so you can be as frustrated and discouraged as he is.

I love this crowd!

At my desk at work. I am positioned so people who pass by cannot see it. I prop it up at the base of my CPU and read. People think I'm looking at my computer. Of course, I do all my work first, and the down time is reserved for reading. At least now people will just think it's another gadget. A book is so obvious, this isn't. I can read all day long.

On the lanai (it's 82 degrees this afternoon), in my easy chair, in bed, in the car, in restaurants, at the mall, walking the dog, in my office during lunch. . .but my favorite place is on the back of the Honda. . .

Mostly right-handed (I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous!)
