The one thing I noticed is that I read books faster when I use my e-reader.Druhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978384022143035332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-80903817517943118772012-01-12T20:10:01.809-05:002012-01-12T20:10:01.809-05:00Congratulations on your new Kindle.

I've had it a bit over a year and have bought a couple of hundred books in that time (and read all but a few that are still 'in the queue'). <br /><br />The place I live in now is quite small, and I love it's hassle free space. But space for bookshelves is at a premium. And - like others - I appreciate not carrying around a bunch of printed copies when onDianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14500345360900905162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-38892591439784772322012-01-12T11:07:35.077-05:002012-01-12T11:07:35.077-05:00I have the Kindle app on my new iPad and have alre...I have the Kindle app on my new iPad and have already downloaded a couple of books for research.

Before I had the iPad, I had the Kindle app on my computer and was using it for research materials. <br /><br />I think e-readers and e-books are a great leap forward, for many reasons.

The first new thing I read was a short story by Herman Melville, about his chimney (there was a reason, really...).<br /><br />You make an excellent point about downloading reader copies, in order to preserve your beloved physical copies.
