Yeah I hear you, I moved to Argentina from the US this year and my
ipad + kindle app has been great. I can buy lots of books which I
can't get down here and get access to them immediately, and I can
carry a whole library in my backpack. So +1 if you are thinking about
it. I like physical books as well but the portability factor is
awesome.
