Indeed, it has helped me to utilize my time, and do my work more efficiently. Now the Kindle fills my waiting time every day. Before I get the Kindle 2, the waiting time like when I'm waiting for my friend is simply wasted, now it is simple that I only need to bring the handy Kindle device with me.

Another thing I like the most is the text-to-speech function, which means I can "read" books without even holding or looking at the Kindle. So I can use it just like the ipod, for books rather than music.

There are many others, you can read some good reviews here to find out more:
