caitriBecause my new job really is that cool, I am on a team to evaluate Kindle for library use.

followed by
2) Dude, these books are pretty expensive!
Seriously. The popular stuff retails about $10 a pop, but I checked out the new Mercedes Lackey novel and it's a heft $17--all of $1 cheaper than buying the hardback.
HMM.
It's on the clunky side but only a little. It makes up in sheer coolness what it lacks in sheer utility.
More later.
