Amazon Kindle - Electronic Reading Device

[yukoncpa]

I will definitely buy something like this when the price drops. However - is it just me, or is staring into a direct light source for hours each day, a strain on my eyes? It seems like reading a book, that uses reflective light, as opposed to a direct light source, is more relaxing. My prejudices won’t detract from the value of something like the Kindle, but still, I can’t help but think, that books won’t become obsolete just yet.
