It’s not often that I am behind the tech curve, and even worse, my PARENTS were on board before me. Approximately 800,000 people had procured a Kindle before I clued in.  My parents bought both my husband and I Kindles for Christmas – I left mine in the box for at least 2 weeks.  My husband locked himself in the bathroom and for all I know he is still in there, reading away.

I picked up the Kindle one evening recently and I am totally hooked.  I am an avid reader – I adore the library (although I suspect I have ponied up at least $1 million in late fees), but this is unbelievable.  I have been reading more than ever – I just downloaded 3 more books – it took 30 seconds!  I can carry 15 books with me in a completely portable system.  The WhisperNet wireless connection is always (or seems to be) always available, no matter where I am.

So, I was reading during lunch and I started thinking of all kinds of ideas for the Kindle – it has completely inspired me!

Thanks Mom and Dad – AWESOME gift!!
