I did not think that I would want to switch from books to a Kindle, but I LOVE my Kindle 2.
I love that I can still annotate in the "books" and look at my notes after. Also, if a book is old enough (AKA can be found online for free at the Gutenberg Project) then it is free on Kindle. It may not necessarily be the translation or the edition you want, but that is a ton of books for free...
