We subscribe to Newsweek, so I had read this article in the paper version.  I had one quibble where he says "You wouldn't want to read an art book on one, or a picture book to your children, or take one into the tub (please)."  He obviously didn't check with the KindleBoards members....  Maybe we should chip in and get him an Aquapac.
