Does it have a Kindle Edition?

We recently got a bookshelf made for our house and all the books that had been jammed into clothes cupboards and  were lying around the house came together into it. I found (re-discovered) a a book titled The Meaning of Everything: The Story of the Oxford English Dictionary, a book I bought almost a couple of years ago at a BN store in Baltimore. Anyway so I finally decided to start reading it. A few dozen pages into the book I was wishing to myself. Does it have a Kindle edition? (It does.)
In a few short weeks I have become addicted to reading on the Kindle. I don’t think I will ever be comfortable reading long form text on a computer screen as it exists today. Even reading physical books  seems to be a bit old fashioned. I will admit that there is there are lots of merits in a physical book. No battery. You can toss it anywhere with almost anything without anything happening to it. You can stamp on it etc. etc. But still.
The only reason one would want books is for beautiful production and presentation (differing very politely with Mr. Simon Cogley from Star Trek TOS episode Court Martial). Something like the severaltomesthat masqueradeas comicbooks.
How does a Kindle compare with the Infibeam Pi? or the Apple iPad? That is a story for another post.
