How do you like the Amazon Kindle? Is it really as easy and convenient as it looks? Worth the money? Thoughts and opinions are appreciated. Thank you very much!

No. It's a marketing ploy. They have been trying to market these eReader or eBook things for years now (probably over a decade). The only thing different about this one is that you are locked into buying books from Amazon now, instead of whoever you wish. Sounds like a move out of Apple's playbook.

Anyways, my Nintendo DS can do this as well as play all of the video games made for it. I'd rather not have to carry around two devices if I ever do decide to give up the trusty paperback (not happening!).
