Is Kindle a Passing Fad?

MSNBC reports that the Amazon Kindle, an electronic reader (e-reader) could possibly change the way we digest our printed materials. in the near future, despite only 1 percent of the U.S. population owning a Kindle.

The report also quoted Adrian Sannier, a technology at Arizona State University as saying that the impact of Kindle will be similar to the impact iPod has had.

With Oprah putting her support behind the Kindle, will her obedient fans also endorse this product (as well as everything else Oprah tells them is "fab-u-lous") or will this be a transition not everyone wants to make?

Sure, Kindle's are practical for the ever-busy jet setters, but what about the rest of us?

Would you invest in a Kindle or is this a passing fad?
