"I was the guy who said he would never go to an e-book but I'm on my third Kindle and can't imagine reading a traditional book any longer."
Me too. Got a Kindle Paperwhite E-reader - Black, 6" High-Resolution Display (300 ppi) with Built-in Light, Free 3G + Wi-Fi

Really easy on the eyes and great for home and travel. Had a crazy big collection of books and now I am quickly thinning the heard. I am a big history buff. Last two additions to the E-Book collection:
American Colonies: The Settling of North America by Alan Taylor
What Hath God Wrought: The Transformation of America, 1815-1848 by Daniel Walker Howe
