>>Curious to know how many of you guys have a Kindle and, if so, how much you use it

>I've got one. I tend to go through cycles where I'll read a ton of new books, then nothing for a few months. So when I'm actually reading, I use it a lot. It's not great for developer/reference books, though. I like the Kindle a LOT more than my iPad for reading books. I used the iPad for browsing websites but find the display of the Kindle a lot nicer for normal books.

I *really* wish someone would make a laptop that was usable in even average sunlight !

> The battery life on the Kindle is excellent.
Haven't had mine long enough to test that yet :-}
