My hubby just downloaded the app for his iPhone and is planning to look for any free books that are out there just to test it out. When he lets me know how it goes, I will let you know.

That's my plan as as well. If they could do color on this technology and highlighting/notation, I think the Kindle could very well replace campus bookstores and textbooks. Too late for me, but wouldn't that be nice?

I have the Sony eReader. I used to travel quite a bit for work, so it definitely came in handy. I also like using 'ebooks' because they cost a little bit less, they don't take up room in my apartment, and they aren't heavy to move. (And it helps the environment

)

I also like that I can take my reader wherever I go & I use it to store MP3 and pictures too.

I know it has the capability to put PDFs & MS Word documents on it too, but I haven't tried doing that yet

I think the new model that just came out has the highlight/note capability, but I haven't tried that one yet. I have the PRS-505.
