We thought about it long and hard. Yes we did. We don't often think about things this long or this hard, because it hurts. But sometimes, cogitations are necessary. We wouldn't be here at Bookbag if we didn't love books but we knew that more and more people were enjoying ebooks. It was time to find out what it was really like to have up to 3,500 books in your pocket or your bag. 3,500! Yikes!

They've taken a long three years to find their way across the pond, but when you find out that Kindle books are outselling hardbacks stateside, there really wasn't any time to lose.

Here's what we think so far.

She hasn't picked up all the other features as quickly as Jill and Keith but has the advantage that those ''ooh, look at this!'' moments have lasted for far longer. The Kindle is intuitive – far more so than many a computer of her acquaintance and she's slightly shocked at how quickly she's come to think of it as a real alternative to paper books.
