It's lighter than a book, I don't have to have a lamp on to read at night, I can adjust the print size as needed, I can highlight passages without damaging the page, and I don't have to deal with boxes of books laying all over the house. Oh, and I can automatically get definitions of unfamiliar words, too. Not to mention not having to drive to a bookstore or wait weeks for Amazon to deliver a book. And I can use it as an internet browser, calculator, alarm clock, a little stereo for when I go walking, and it's great for audiobooks and old radio shows, too.

The previous message was brought to you by the Bezos foundation. Because too much money is never enough.
