Would you curl up with a Kindle?

Kindle As the days grow shorter and the weather colder, I like nothing more than to retreat indoors, drink hot chocolate and curl up with a good book. Now there a device which may change the way we read. Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, developed a new electronic book. The Kindle has been in the works for three years and was recently released to the public. It costs $399 and is being touted as the ipod for books. Amazon has over 90,000 downloadable titles for $9.99, as well as newspaper subscriptions. There is plenty of hype about the Kindle, including a cover story in Newsweek. However, will it live up to the expectations? And more importantly, can you curl up with it?
