I love it but get cranky when I see books on special but you can only get the special if you are in the US. Apparently there's a way to change your address but I need to find how to do it.
It's great seeing a book you want and 30 seconds later it's there.
It was fantastic in Bali as it fit in my small handbag. As I travel alone I like to keep a book with me. If I go to a restaurant etc it gives me something to do. Also meant I didn't have to keep looking in second hand bookshops for new books.
The battery life is great too if you have the wireless turned off. It lasted the whole week and I read a few hours each day.
I assume you meant wait for more competition. As with any devise they do get cheaper. I looked at them a year ago but you couldn't download books outside the US then. I like the fact that it's not backlit like some as that is tiring on the eyes. But you do need a light when it's dark.
I'm happy with it. I like the size too. Some of the others are too small. And the fact that you can increase the font size. In restaurants where the light isn't wonderful I just increased the font size.
