I think I am finally going to...

buy a Kindle - I have been debating for awhile and after watching Oprah on the DVR this weekend think I am going to do it. 

Plus you get $50 off if you put OPRAHWINFREY in the promo code when checking out at amazon.com through November 1st. 

Anyone else been thinking of this or does anyone have one???

Jon's had one for a while and loves it -- he initially bought it for when he's traveling and uses it a ton!

Ok, see you Wednesday!
