Review Kindle 3G Wireless Reading Device

I'm a first-time Kindle 3G Wireless Reading Device owner, so I have nothing to "compare" the latest Kindle to. I don't own a Nook. I don't own an iPad (and, in any case, that's comparing apples to oranges). I don't have a Sony e-reader. '

This will be a short, simple review. I received my Kindle about a week ago and haven't been able to put it down. Things I like about my Kindle?

The e-ink display is amazing.
Using the 5-way controller is simple and effective.
Page turn speeds are faster than I thought they would be.
It's lightweight, even with the attached cover (I have an Amazon cover with a built-in light)
Page-turning buttons are quiet and well-placed.
Recharge time is fast.
I can order a book and start reading it in less than 60 seconds. Nice!
Portability... I can take 3,000 books with me when I travel for work and not require additional suitcases or baggage fees.
