Thanks for posting this, Arnie. I've been watching the rise of the Kindle for a while. It popped up at various publishing conferences a few years back. As a reader, it does have some appealing qualities. But, the product is too expensive to go mainstream just yet, in my view. I'd be nervous to schlep a $400 device on international trips with multiple time zones/hotel stays. It's okay if I accidentally leave a paperback behind in a plane or forget it in my hotel room, but you'd have to be careful with a Kindle--it sort of changes my perception of reading materials when I'm traveling.
