Hi
this is slightly off topic but the answer could be useful to others.
Looking at the amazon kindle it looks as if i can use it to open /
read normal pdf files such as the one for the ubuntu manual, if this
is the case it would be useful.
On another note, part of my Open uni studies requires me to read and
highlight text in book, if i could get hold of electronic versions can
i do this with kindle or other book readersl as in highlight text
adnthen some how save the file with the highlights so i can use it to
take notes, or perhaps there is other ways to attach notes to text.
i amk looking at several books on LInux atm, have very little shelf
space left and don't want to be a tree killer by printing out
documentation,
i can also buy electronic books cheaper than paper, copies
any suggestions or ideas

Do you have a Staples locally? Here in Plymouth they are selling both
versions of the Kindle and they have a demo/display booth where you can
try them out.
