Playing with the Kindle 2. A few thoughts.

So I spent a few minutes with my wife's Kindle 2 this morning. The device was easy to use and easy to read. It connected to Amazon and retrieved information quickly. It felt fine to hold it in my hand.


One thing I did not like is that normally free content on the Web comes with a cost on the Kindle. What's up with that? Blogs and newspapers that are free in my web browser on my PC cost money on the Kindle. Well for me since I don't read many books the Kindle would not be something I would get for myself. I think its just as easy to fire up my Dell Mini 9 and read the free content for free.
