But after <a href="http://book-in-hand.com/2010/07/29/kindle-now-139/" rel="nofollow">they cut the price to $139, </a>I can't really agree. At that price it is less than a lot of other specialized electronic gadgets. That was valid argument against the Kindle a few months ago. But after they cut the price to $139, I can’t really agree.

Although I did finish a book on a plane the other day and was a little miffed I couldn't pick up the next in the series wirelessly (How spoiled am I) Anyways I think the second generation was great, I wouldn't like it to be any larger and for $189 it beats iPad and Nook, just my thoughts if you want to know more <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0015T963C?ie=UTF8&tag=butlerblog-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0015T963C" rel="nofollow">check it out here</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=butlerblog-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B0015T963C" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> Personally I love my Kindle, I was skeptical how much I would like it prior to purchase but the Kindle is as easy on the easy as regular print, with added features such as dictionary support (allowing your to define any word while reading) and the ability to download any new book wirelessly anywhere anytime is great.
