You're getting pretty heated here. I'm not arguing. Not sure what you mean by thin? That you don't feel I have a point? Granted, I see not everyone looks forward to their lunch everyday to sitting down with the book they want to read only to find i brought the wrong one. Now, no, it's not the end of my life but it is frustrating. Hence my liking the eReader. Why does that piss you off so much? It is a worthy reason to me, and really, that's all I need. I don't need to prove to you that it's life or death 'cause I don't have my book. Books and the eReaders are luxuries so why is this such a huge deal to you? I was simply making a point as to why I like them and why they would make my life easier.

Anyone with any stress or a busy life(because really, do you know what's occupying my thoughts daily?) in their life can understand that at the end of my lunch and my day, I don't sit and think about where I am in the book or to make sure I put a new one in my lunch. So, yeah, an eReader would solve one of my minor frustrations.

As to your "technical" aspects. You can bet I'm going to buy a car charger the day I get the reader. I've got one for all my electronics. I've already learned that lesson!

Calm down, it's just an eReader. No one said it's going to replace the physical book.

You're not arguing but make an argument every post.

Ok good 'cause it sounded heated!

I was just trying to say how much I'd love one. I swear these posts almost made me buy one today. I am trying to save money...but damn i want a NOOK!!!!!!!!!!

Edit: I also forgot to take my book to my car at lunch today. Good thing getting crickets took most of it. I had nothing to read!

E-Books come in handy when your house burns down and you lose your entire library (unfortunately something I have experienced).  You can re-download the books.  I also like that I can set the font to a common standard.  Makes it easier on my eyes.
