I also loved the feel of 'real' books, but like Jacqui and others, find that cramps and loss of feeling in my hands was making it harder and harder to read them. I got a Kindle last year and absolutely adore it - only problem is that my friend next door has borrowed it to read a Tess Gerritsen book I'd downloaded - and I haven't had it back yet - she has found other books on there to read too!!
I'm back to a paperback at the moment, but once it is finished (hard work -I keep dropping it, losing my place and my hand cramps while reading) I'll be nagging to get my dear Kindle back. I didn't think I'd miss it so much!!
