E-book fever.

No. I decided if we every become a totalitarian state, it won't be as much fun stomping on a bunch of electronic tablets as it would be tossing bookins into this enormous campfire.

I have a Kobo and love it.

I purchased one for my father, and he is quite complimentary about it.

Actually yes but only because I was given one. Even so, I probably spend just about as much time online with it (it is my only source of internet at home currently) as I do reading ebooks on it.

No I haven't, and I don't really plan to. When it comes to reading I am much the traditionalist. I love my books , and will continue to cherish every one I buy until they're taken completely off the market.

I love my Kindle, although at the moment, I'm rocking it old school, reading a book my SIL sent me for Christmas, and rereading a series, the latest installment of which I now have on Kindle. I wasn't sure about it for a long time, but then I test drove the hubby's and deemed the experience awesome. I like, too, that I can bump up the text size. I find I'm needing to do that here and there as I get older. And I love that I'll never have to buy another bookshelf; I don't have room for another one anyway.

I thought that too right up til I figured out much like red that I can bump the font and size to read without my glasses in bed.

I'm near sighted. I don't need glasses to read, just for everything else....glasses I currently don't have and can't afford, but that's beside the point.

I have picked up off a free-site several hundred of my favourite books, making my kindle a travelling library. If I want a book, I can turn on the 3G and buy a book from Amazon. They will deliver it to the Kindle within about a minute.

Same with Kobo. I also downloaded calibre to my desktop which lets me convert any ereader's books to my preferred format. I have quite the free library too and many given to me by friends. I buy about 3 every quarter.

I have had my Kindle for about a year. The Mrs and I have both got books down loaded. I have gotten some Edgar Rice Burroughs Mars series books free from Amazon.

I won my Kindle at work last March...I currently have over 200 books on it. (and haven't actually BOUGHT a single one)...my 8 yr old son also has about 10 books on my Kindle that he reads. I use a site called warez-bb.org and download alot of books from there. Plus, the free content from Amazon.com. I read alot, and still love actually holding a book & turning pages, but the Kindle is SOOOOOO very convenient for travel. Plus, I like the text-to-speech feature...it reads my books (that are in the Kindle's Mobi format) to me, so I use it ALL the time at work for that. Calibre is awesome for the changing of the formats, we use it too.

I've been sniffing the Kindle air from a distance and been half afraid of it's run-away horse potential. So far this thread seems not to be changing that.
