I've been looking into the Kindle and to my shock I discovered that Amazon give the thing away for free! I've now got Kindle reader on my iPod, Mac, and MacBook and have just bought my first book Dead Until Dark. The app syncs your purchases beautifully across all your gadgets (in other words, I paid once and it appeared on all three of my gadgets) so I can read whenever and wherever I like. It's fantastic! I might be inclined to agree with Barry to some extent about the Kindle gadget's paper-like screen being quite an attractive proposition, but I cannot justify paying over one hundred quid for this minor benefit when the app itself costs absolutely nothing on virtually any other gadget!
Bye bye bookshops forever
