Welcome back!

Recently I took a trip to Phoenix.  Along with me I took a Course Kit for CUWN, my IPExpert CCIE Security Lab book as well as Proctor Guide, 2 Cisco Press books and my InternetworkExpert CCIE Security Volume 2 lab guide.  I had to take an extra suitcase to carry it all.  It was such a hassle checking in my bags and waiting for them at baggage claim, but even more so it sucked lugging that stuff everywhere.  I have some of the stuff in PDF form on my laptop, and on the flight I used the PDF for a while.  But Batteries dont last forever on a laptop and it took all the room on that little tray that folds down on the airplane. 

Enter the Amazon Kindle. 

When I was in Orlando at Cisco Live, the guys at Cisco Press were demonstrating the Kindle in the Certification Lounge.  I didn’t get to check it out for long but it is SWEET.  It’s 10 ounces and can store about 200 books.  Has a slot to add memory, wi-fi so you dont have to plug it in to download your books and can last a week without a charge.  The Kindle version of the books are less than the hard back.  It saves your place, is really easy to use and well, its just cool. 

I cant say enough about it!  I think its also cool that you can get newspapers, blogs and more on it.  I myself am going to see about getting my blog into kindle format so it can be taken with you.

Anyhow, if you check it out please let me know what you think.  I’m interested to see what others have to say.
