Amazon Kindle Wireless Reading Device

The Amazon Kindle 2.0 is pretty cool piece of technology.  It is about as thick as a pencil and lighter than most paperback books.  It's wireless 3G service lets you download books at your favorite hotspot.  They currently have over 300,000 books available to download and some of them can even read to you!

I would love to hear how you use this for your real estate career (other than just reading a book at an open house).

Think I will stick with the HP NetBook since it does more than just essentially read books.

Jim,

If you do a lot of eReading these are way easier on your eyes.  I have a first gen. one that someon gave me after they upgraded.  I still prefer the look, feel, and smell of a real book.

I am still on the fence.  Researched HP's dual touch tablet PC today and with my custom configurations and NAR discounts, I can it for about $800 and do 10X more stuff than a Kindle for only double the price.
