It's not the same as reading off the Kindle. I prefer paper over the Kindle. I've seen a couple folks reading it on Muni in the last month or so. They look sorta funny reading, but it's not the same as reading a physical book. I recently discovered Green Apple books over in the inner Richmond and it's now it's absolutely my favorite bookstore. It's eye candy for a book lover. It is interesting to recall memories when you look at books. It’s not the same as reading off the Kindle.

The view of book as object is really central to my framework. As an illustrator the Kindle and other readers makes me a bit uneasy. The view of book as object is really central to my framework.

I wasn't blown away by the design, and with all the other factors including the one you are talking about...yea not for me. I waited for the v2 after really wanting the v1.

I was tempted by v1 and said I'd wait for v2 before committing myself. When v2 got here, my gadget love almost got me to click away at it, but then I realized all of the things that I love about books wouldn't be there if I got a Kindle. Last week, I was in Salt Lake City, and went to Sam Weller's Bookstore. We wandered around for an hour and a half, picking old and new books off the shelf and reading a few lines. Try doing that with a Kindle. This sums up my thoughts precisely about the Kindle. I was tempted by v1 and said I’d wait for v2 before committing myself.
