Polly, sorry I don't have one but my SIL recently got the Kindle from
Amazon as well and loves it. Tons of free titles. FWIW she joined
some online discussion groups prior to purchase to see what would work
for her. If you're interested I can get that info for you. Avid
doesn't even come close to describing her reading habits and I agree
that it will make her life considerably easier travelling with reading
material. I looked at it as well but was looking for something that I
could read in bed at night without the aid of glasses. And even with
the font sizes available, I still would need glasses so it lost some
of it's appeal for me personally.
