Kindle 2 has exceeded all my worldly expectations. It is so light. I will never have to lug heavy books around on public transportation again. I can easily read and turn pages with one hand while standing on the bus. I use the built in dictionary all the time, even if I already know the definition of the word I’m looking up. I read free downloadable books that aren’t really worth my time. Kindle 2 does everything except my laundry. I love you Kindle 2.
