According to the Daily Orange library has now purchased several kindles for student use. There was an article in the Daily Orange about it.

The kindles the library are using are the Kindle DX. This is the larger and more expensive version of the Kindle two. Should you decide to go and preview it (which I would recommend) just bear in mind that most e-book readers are about half the size of this. When you see a it hardly seems that they can store 700 full-size textbooks on it. But that's how technology is today.

wow. I am really interested in this e-book thing. I do want to see these kindles and what they are all about. With the way technology is advanceing, I think at some point we will have access to them through myslice at which point we will be able to use the resource from almost anywhere.
