I love my Kindle Keyboard! I once was a English Major, had an astonishing amount of books, but with MS, 24/7 in a wheelhair,have use of only one hand so can't hold a book and turn pages or carry books but Kindle Keyboard is perfect for me in that my only complaint is because getting new books is too easy (60 second transfer), I order too many. But some are free or really cheap, so I do ok. I'm OK with using ebook versus "real" books. My kids consider themselves paper-free and use IPhones or their laptops. Both have unlimited access to my Kindle books or Amazon video or Netflix Instant View movies through them. I love my Kindle! I still have books in bookcases around the house but no one uses them. I think sometimes the kids think I'm a dinosaur!

I love both..I'm a book worm.

I agree, besides the hard copies look good on your bookshelf

Hard copies - yes! And they do look good on my bookshelf too.
