its the wide variety of books you can get and the fact that they are low prices and in some cases free that helps

Yip!

And the fact that you can be lying on a beach in Spain, and download a new book or daily newspaper at the click of a button!

I see the practical side of kindles, definitely, but what will you do during a zombie apocalypse? Electricity would surely be down, and you'd only have one kindle to throw, instead of hundreds of books after having found shelter in your library! uh oh grin

Book, book, book all the way, I love having loads of opened tomes spread out on a desk and breathing in the library aroma. Kindles frustrated

very happy I too Have received a kindle .. christmas 20012 from the childer's grin as an avid book reader I found it a bit bewildering at times ..but I soon got used to it . the books are cheaper(on amazon.com), and just last month my kindle went haywire ..a black blurry line appeared ,( it never fell) confused on the side leaving me to guess the last word of the sentence dunno it's managable but fustrating.I will get a new one this year sometime :)
I do still from time to time beg/borrow/buy a paperback.writing

Sure you don't get the same heat from burning a kindle and if you drop a book the cover doesn't smash on you.
Books all the way.

... and you can't dog-ear a Kindle to mark your place moping

Books always.

I have a Kindle at home that my dad gave me - still in the box, barely charged it once to have a nose around. Not for me.

It's ok Wade. You can still wear your Monocle while reading Ancient Greek Classics.
