I got a Kindle for my birthday, and I'm coming to like it very much. I'm an avid reader, and I estimate I've gone through close to a hundred books on it since October. I admit I still refer paper, but the convenience of the Kindle plus the ability to have any book any time is fantastic. The only drawback is that I'm shomer shabbat, so I still need paper books. Also, carrying PDFs of manuals or handbooks to a worksite is a major bonus. I haven't tried Hebrew on it yet, so can't report as to that functionality or lack. All in all, I'd say it's worth it. sambo _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
