    Hi Ben… there are some strong counter-arguments to the Kindle that make me very wary of it, and not just the DRM and selling of open blogs. See this post by Mark Pilgrim for some interesting perspective. Although it’s certainly great in principle and apparently well-done technically, I think there are some issues that need to be resolved…
    Cheers,
    Steve

    Hello Ben,
    A lot of time has passed since your original post and many of those issues have been tackled, in my opinion.
    The latest Kindle ( dx ) has improved navigation greatly and it comes with native pdf support, a larger screen, a better design, 3.5 gb storage capacity and much better text definition. It even has a landscape feature ( which acts like a zoom ) that lets small pdfs and big images to be viewed much better. Here’s a page about the Kindle, with in depth information and useful tips on all three versions of this reader.
    Regards,
    John T.
