I agree
I have to agree with you there. The Kindle is a nice gadget, but completely superfluous. Heck between MobiReader Pocket and the Gutenberg Project, I can read the classics on my BlackBerry (one of my personal projects. I grew up watching the movies, now I'm finding out what the real story is).

I wanna get a netbook at some point and run KUbuntu on it ('cause I prefer KDE to GNOME). And use it for digital reading and art (I do digital drawings with GIMP).
