Have any of you guys got a Kindle or other e-book reader? The only reason I would get one would be so I could get books like this for free and could take a whole bundle of them away wherever I may be going. Does anyone have any recommendations for model of device (maybe even an iPad!) or where's the best place to get e-books from? cheers!
Most of us are from the United States and are too poor these days to buy cool stuff.

The Kindle is a very good device. I have one, and I thoroughly enjoy having it. Doesn't have tons of functions like the iPad, but it reads very well. It feels as if you are reading paper, and more light is actually better.
I use it for those purposes, to put old Christian works on it. I don't regret it a bitSo in essence, when I have my Kindle with me, I also have my library. So yes, Kindle would be my recommendation.
Whereabouts have you been getting these? I know that CCEL have books available as PDFs, would these look OK on the Kindle?The Kindle is a very good device.

Thanks for the recommendations guys! I don't honestly see myself ever shelling out for an iPad so the non-3G Kindle is probably the most likely option. As is so often the case though it's more expensive to buy it from the UK Amazon site as it is from the US one (equivalent of $40 more expensive)!
