E-books are not new. In fact initial e-reader gadgets failed to live up to technology's hype ... which is why avid readers stuck with books. All that may change soon, though. How so?
According to FORTUNE 500 the new Kindle e-book reader enables readers to download e-books, or subscribe to magazines and blogs directly from Amazon.com. At $399.00 this revolutionary, wireless network connects you to the net as fast as you turn it on.
With another few clicks ... you order an instant book, or upload newspapers or magazines. In a flash you’re ready to read the latest print. How fast?
Readers can download 1,000 book pages, in less than a minute. 
Check out Amazon’s videos and explanations for details. For instance the little gadget gives you 100 reading hours, and can be fully recharged in two hours.
Change font to make reading a better experience, search words to find your way around, and tap into the new additions or changes authors make to their e-books after you read a favorite volume.
People who questioned the The iPhone’s ability to alter music publications, or who argued that cell phones wouldn’t reduce traditional land phone use, are taking another look. Could the Kindle onslaught wipe out book business as we know it? Do you see more e-books you where you work?

I wanted the Kindle to read the many dozens of ebooks in the PDF format that I have accumulated (and don't want to print).
Unfortunately, the Kindle cannot read the PDF format without conversion.
When Amazon fixes the Kindle so I can read PDFs with it, I will be a buyer.
