I want.

Kindle

You have to understand that I've wanted to go abroad for some time. Years. To a country that doesn't speak English. And I've wondered how I would adequately support my reading habit while there, since I read a lot. This has been less of a concern lately, since all of the for-pleasure books that I've read this semester would fit in a small suitcase (and there would be room for other stuff like socks, as well). But it's still been a concern. So I've been hoping for years that they'll manage to come out with something like this and do it well.

And they have. It looks completely awesome. It's not a book, but seems to be the next best thing. And I think they've done well on the things-that-books-can't-do front.

. . . I hope that it isn't $400 by the time I want to buy one.

WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE IN YOUR HEAD, YOU MAKE UP FOR IN YOUR HEELS.

. . . and I'd lose my head, too, if it weren't screwed on.
