I've seen several kindles used on public transit.
I tried not to stare and drool too noticeably....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
OMFG MAIL THREADING!!
I somehow missed that there would be mail threading. I was so excited about the unified inbox that I somehow skipped and skimmed? OMG!
Also, I now have my folder of Crap I Don't Use.
I don't have multitasking because I have a 3G. But the other parts are totes worth the endless download/backup/install/restore/sync-yet-again business, especially since I didn't have anything else I needed to be doing with the phone during that time.
Did I mention THREADED MAIL IN MY UNIFIED INBOX?

Yeah, I downloaded the update the other night and it took FOREVER. I still haven't put it on the phone, though.

Since I haven't taken my laptop with me, I will be upgrading when I get back. Of course, I may not even bother, since I'm planning on getting a 4 in July.

Our wings are not tired.
Wish I could afford a 4. It's not in my budget right now. I'll be buying a used 3GS and making do for a while.

Agh, I'm glad you reminded me. I'd better get that started; I need to go in 15.

I am on the road so I won't be able to update my iPhone or my iPad until I'm back on July 14th. The machine I sync with is the iMac in my office.

Hey. New board.
eReader + public transit is a beautiful thing. The Kindle, at least, is perfectly designed for easy one-handed reading, perfect for reading while holding on to the overhead rail on trains/buses during rush hour.
I am going to wait a few days to update my iPhone. Now that school is winding down, I don't need to consolidate my inboxes quite as badly as I did two months ago, so I'll let any kinks get worked out before I jump in. Glad to hear it's going well, though. It looks cool.
