Next of Kindle

Check out Renee’s post on the new Kindle 2 over at Wig-Wags.  Be sure to read the comments.  I dismissed the Kindle out of hand when I learned – or at least thought I learned – that it could only be used to read e-books downloaded from Amazon.  I don’t think I would ever buy an e-book, except for the occasional novel (I read 3 or 4 a year).  But I thought the Kindle would be ideal for reading public domain books that can be found for free on sites like Google Books.  Well, as Renee points out, the Kindle 2 can be used for that.  Looks like I might need to do some reconsiderating.
