ITEC 830 -- Week One: The Kindle
I was really excited last week to see that one of our text books for this class was available in Kindle format. I got my Kindle in January and have really enjoyed reading on it. I originally got it because I felt it had a lot of potential in education. Now I will get a chance to gain some insight into its use in an educational setting. It has the capability to allow notes and highlighting. I'll keep you all informed on how well this works.

Marshall,
Can you bring the Kindle to class sometime? It's too late for me to go with the e-book format for this semester, but if you've had good luck reading e-books, I'd like to check it out.
At the moment, I'm trying to figure out how to NOT bring my laptop to class--I've hooked up a full-size bluetooth keyboard to my Palm Treo and that seems to be working well for taking class notes. It doesn't work well for reading textbooks, however.
