Printed books and the Kindle 3

I have a book that was signed by Mohammad Ali and realize that this could be a collectors item. How when I got the book does not matter but because it has been signed makes it a goldmine to someone that collects autographs. With Kindle being a great invention in technology I wonder how many people will sell their books that take up space and require dusting?

Books could soon become a thing of the past. Instead of curling up to a good book you will curl up with your Kindle and download what interests you. A lot of our books just sit on a shelf today. After you have read certain books  unless they are reference books they have no use.  

Kindles are really great and easy to use and some tell the story without even having to read the words. My grandson and I listened to "Jack and the Beanstalk" and the person or people that read it made it exciting to listen to. It changed my view about how this could impact the world of books. The hobby of collecting books may slowly fade with computers and new technology.

What do you think about Kindle, technology and the old method of reading a book? Will this change the world like computers and cell phones have? When a kid does not know what a cassette tape is I know things are changing rapidly. Here are some free Kindle stories that include childhood stories and fairy tales. The Kindle is expensive but so are printed books the Kindle 3 is great for personalizing your library.

I need to search and see if you are limited on the books you can download using this technology. Watch our world as this technology could make books obsolete. What do you think?
