I am a huge book worm. I started reading at age 3 and haven't put a book down since. I was born with CP so as a disabled person I didn't do much physical activities so books were my friends.
I also went through alot of painful surgeries and procedures so books became an escape from the pain!
But as I get older (I'm 40 now) I find my hands cramping up while holding books and I can't read for as long as I like. Laying the book on a table isn't the most comfortable position either.
Years ago I had one of those bulky ebook readers. I hated the glare and the bulkiness of the device.
Around Halloween I saw the Sony reader in target. I loved the new technology. The new devices are now streamlined and lighter! I've been reading about the kindle on amazon, where I get 100% of my books anyway, so it made sense to get the kindle.
My parents did their "what do you want for Christmas call" and I didn't hesitate. A kindle!
Now I am waiting for my kindle baby (December 15- January 1st).
