I just bought a kindle for $139 and I absolutely love it! I also bought a lighted cover. I downloaded several free books. I got the Bible for 99 cents. I turn on the sound so that it reads the Bible to me. The print I can make large. I have carpel tunnel in both hands so it doesn't make my hands ache to hold it like a book does. My friend bought a kinle when Oprah had a $50 off coupon. She absolutely loves mine and said that it has all sorts of improvements!
