I did! I really did not think I would be interested but Jeff won me over. Plus, I figure I have until the 24th to change my mind...

I just bought one too.  I did not think I would buy one. Kindle 2 has so many things I like about it. |

I think I'm going to. I just put Edgar up for sale on the buy, trade, sell board.
I want it. I really want it. The design chages did me in.

It looks like this one is designed to be read without the cover on (unlike the K1). The two sleeves offered on Amazon only unzip on two sides. (See Kindle 2 Accessories).

I would like one, but can't justify upgrading - especially since i have two covers for my original one.

Thanks to a wonderful Kindleboards member, I've already sold my K1 (took about 3 minutes) and have just placed my order for k2.
I'll be stealing borrowing my daughter's K1 to use in the meantime.

I could have, but I knew I'd have my daughter's to read. She only reads in the evening and it has to be put away by 10:30 so I can read it after her. |

I just ordered one too. I told myself I would wait, see how others liked it and save up before I jumped in - but I couldn't resist. Much as I love my K1 and case, the new form factor and features sound really good to me. I use a bike as my primary transportation 6-7 months a year, and my "purse" is a messenger bag. Being able to slip my kindle into the document sleeve of my bag, with negligible weight or bulk, is very appealing. Crisper screen, longer battery life, text to voice are all good things too. I won't need a SD card with the on board memory K2 has. And I had a tax return burning a hole in my pocket...

I had one on order and added a second once my wife said she wanted one as well as my daughter. Now it will be jump ball between the 1 kindle 1 and 2 kindle 2. I will be arguing the Heritage value of the kindle 1 should be enjoyed by someone else than me

I just sent M-edge an email about exchanging my K1 cover (still in bag) for a K2 one. I get that out of the way and I'm happy. I can eat the DecalGirl skin if necessary but will check in to getting an exchange as well. |

I had to do it. Now to decide if I sell my K1 or keep it. Also, I was going to order a 2nd Oberon cover last Friday, but decided to wait until this Friday. Glad I did! Now I will need to order an Oberon for K2!

Hubby expressed an interest in my K1, but I suspect he'd prefer that I order a second K2  I ordered the Amazon case, but that was before I saw that the M-edge cases were available, with hinges, and with the built-in light. Decisions, decisions. |

I'll be getting the K2 automatically since I ordered back in January. Today I placed separate orders for the Amazon black cover and the Mighty Bright reading light.
I wish I had originally selected one-day shipping on my Kindle reader order because the CS rep told me changing it now might back up my place in line (don't want to take that chance).
Since the first possible ship date is February 24 (a Tuesday), 3 business days puts me to a Friday Feb. 27 delivery at best, right?

Am I crazy or what?! I missed the press coverage but after reading comments here I said and *posted* I was going to wait and see what you guys that ordered the K 2 thought after using it. Then I go to Amazon, watch the K2 video clip and now I want to order one! |

Wait, I missed out on the "usb cord charge" and "podcast feature." I'm on K2 overload. The text-to-speech put me over the edge....although I'm hoping the "speech" won't be too robotic. |
