Kindle for Kollege Kids

It’s almost $500, but I could totally see highly-endowed universities handing them out to freshmen.

The new, textbook-sized, Kindle.

If someone else was paying for them, and if students don’t decide that Kindles are lame, then this really should take off at school. It’s a lot better than carrying around 5 books and forgetting one at home. And if you lose your Kindle, all the books are already backed-up online. But $500 is a ton.

    I want one! I’ll probably never buy it. Maybe if I make my blog a success someone will give me one to review on my site???? Yeah, right.

    Here’s my question. Does the new kindle work well with small paperback equivalents which is what the first Kindle was designed to handle?

    Sure it does. I assume.
