Not if they use the library, of course.
The Kindle isn't for everyone. However, it is good for people who:
- cannot easily get to a library
- are too lazy to go to a library
- travel a lot
- need large print books
- want hot new bestsellers that are in short supply in the library
- want obscure, out of print, old books (which are available for free
-- but other gadgets may be better for this purpose)
and so on . . .
What I would like is not a Kindle but a printer replacement.
Something that attaches to the computer and gathers together pages
printed to it, so I can look at them. I have two screens on my
computer but a third one flat on the desk used as a replacement
printer would be handy.
By the way, having two screens is one of the best things you can get
for a computer. I have a 19" landscape and 21" portrait. It is very handy.
Here is the ultimate:

Eight 20" screens ganged together! For a mere 6 grand.
