it's a delight to be able to travel with books that don't weigh a ton.
Absolutely! I'm flying to Orlando later in the month, and I can take my Kindle, with over 30 or so books in it, without all the weight. It's great. I have an iPod, but not an iPhone or iTouch. I would not want to try to read a book on my iPod, though I think it is capable.
