This is a follow-up to my original post about the Kindle 2 I purchased recently.

So it’s been a couple weeks.  The first week was spent just finding my way around it.  Once I got used to it, though, it was a breeze!  And now?

I LOVE IT.

I have transported .pdf files that I needed from work to home, uploaded short fiction and poetry from Amazon, as well as purchased several lower-priced Kindle-version novels that I wanted to read.  (lower priced meaning that the hardcover ranged in price from $25-$45, and the Kindle versions were typically $10-$15)

Not only is it far more convenient than carrying around a number of books, I can access books when the mood strikes rather than having to wait until I finish one to begin another.  This works especially well with the non-fiction books I enjoy reading.  It’s as convenient as reading the actual book (in spite the formatting errors that seem to crop up throughout) without the added weight of lugging the book around in my backpack.

I still read a novel at night the old-fashioned way, but on the bus, it’s Kindle-all-the-way!
