We're here! It's the first official KindleBoards meet-up in DC.
We're still waiting for a few people, but we have our balloons and KindleBoards sign so hopefully they'll show up.
I'm going to go into chat and hang out there if anybody wants to talk to us!

Poke away. That's why I brought my laptop.

Are you all sitting there reading silently?

LOL. I'll be looking forward to see a picture of that. I don't think there's a picture of more than 1 person reading with the Kindle.

One end of the table is K2 and the other end is K1...we're using the Text-to-Speech at this end...

Everyone has their Kindle out on the table. We're comparing covers, skins, and the differences between the K1 and K2.
I don't think any of us has eaten yet though.

I am so jealous! I'm in So Cal. Would love to have a Kindle Klub. In fact, yesterday as I was leaving work I ran into another Kindler. Then another who just ordered a Kindle and a K1 user also walked by. I jokingly said we were having a Kindle Klub meeting. Of course we all compared our Kindles and had a couple minutes to gab. I was able to give out a slew on info to a newbie of 2 weeks. Funny, how most Kindlers are in love with their Kindle and want to talk about it. Anyone interested in a So Cal Klub?

Congratulations, and I hope you all have a great time. You'll have to have a good enough time for the people there, and the people who couldn't make it.

Now we have Betsy on the phone and we're passing the phone around the table to say hi. Hopefully nobody is eating her cake while she's on the phone.

Segregation? Who's winning? It's a tie actually. 4 K2's and 4 K1's. Somehow all the July birthdays are all on one side of the table
