This is cool but I find traces of commercialism woven into these books and it is annoying. If I am going to cerebrally (invented word) immerse myself in something, I do not want the cogs of capitalism seeping in there with it telling me that I need a Lexus. I love a good book but my mother SWEARS by her kindle... no Art?
I suppose I need to get used to it because of its inevitability.

I just downloaded the kindle app on my BB -- not as good as reading it on my kindle but if I am in a jam, I can read my book. I was reluctant to go digital with my books, but I honestly wouldn't go back. I can highlight and post passages I want to share directly to FB or Twitter -- I can see what other people have highlighted in the book that I'm reading, I can make margin notes or bookmark key passages and they are so easy to access when I want to discuss the book. I'm with your mom on the Kindle! (and it doesn't try to sell me a lexus!)
