Amazon just dropped the price of the Kindle 2 by $60, so I am a little more tempted now to drop some cash on one. I am really on the fence, though, about the Kindle. In some ways, the Kindle DX, with its bigger screen, is appealing too, but it's awfully pricey. And I have always had an attachment to the physicality of conventional books. I like the process of building my own library over the years. But I'll admit that because I am so reluctant to part with books, my apartment is a bit overrun by so many volumes, so getting new books in digital form--even if just sometimes--would help a lot on that front. Moreover, it would be awfully convenient to travel with just the Kindle rather than a small stack of books.
I need to ruminate some more about this.
