The Social Marginal

I have found what I believe to possibly be one of the neatest devices created in recent years, the Amazon Kindle.  Over 80,000 available titles from launch and they include many books on my ‘to read’ list as well as available subscriptions to many magazines and periodicals which I enjoy reading. 

I sat next to someone on the plane with one of these this past weekend and the screen is extremely easy to read without a backlight and it’s extremely light and looks very easy to carry/handle with one hand and still flip the pages.  Now only if they were actually in stock.  Oh well, I guess I’ll be waiting.  Once I finally do get my hands on one of these suckers though, I’ll definitely have to write an over-opinionated review of it.
