Amazon just dropped the price of their Kindle 2 ebook reader. After reading some reviews, people seem to really like it. I am debating whether I should pick one up. What do you guys think? Is it worth the $260 price tag?
Here is my situation:
Kindle Cons:
I have a bunch of books I wanted to read, but haven't gotten to yet, so I feel like i should read them first.
I could get an XBox 360 instead, but I already am back logged with Wii Games
I don't really read THAT much, though I would like to
Kindle Pros:
It might motivate me to read more, as I would feel guilty about spending the money and not using it.
Cheap books/free
Having a couple thousand books carried with me with just one device is pretty rad.
I am out and about quite a bit, and it would be nice to have the option to read whilst having lunch or whatnot
I have no interest in audiobooks
Thoughts? Any one out there with one who can give me a first hand account of Kindle ownership.
 I am a Gauntlet Adventurer.I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly.
