Yeah, i've found the same advantages/ disadvantages with the kindle, it's fantastic if you want to get a hold of books very quickly but you have to be willing to pay the price unfortunately. With the Kindle Fire HD you can now actually stream movies and tv shows from lovefilm and get various apps, games and internet for it, which has turned it more into a cheaper slightly more basic version of the i Pad which is fantastic for the price it cost! I do however go to the beach a lot due to living on an island and it really isn't ideal for that, sand has a nasty habit of getting everywhere including into the kindle.
