chhotiiMy new Kindle is charging up.
What spurred this expenditure-- finding out that the recommended textbook for my class is available on the Kindle, and the Kindle weighs less than the paper book. Sure, Kindle + Kindle version of book is more expensive than book, but many books are cheaper in Kindle form. I figure it will pay for itself over the long run.
Puzzlement: you can't get to the power button when the faux-leather cover is on. To turn it off, you have to pry it out of the cover, which appears to be hard to do w/o pressing a Next button, which would lose your place? Do people just leave it on all the time?
