Is buying a Kindle worth it? I'm looking at the Oasis, because I want the ability to disable touch screen and turn pages with the buttons (ya girl has ADHD and sometimes needs to follow along the line of text with a finger to avoid losing track of where I am).
I just love having a physical book in my hands, but I'm think the Kindle would be cheaper, and more convenient for travel, etc.

I adore my Kindle for several reasons, but I still love real books, too. My husband bought me my first Kindle, because I read in bed, and he's a light sleeper. He was always annoyed by my book light, and the sound of pages turning.
I love the way it slips into the pouch on the side of my purse, that I can load it up with books for a trip, even audiobooks--- it links to the Bluetooth in my car. You will never be without something to read; you can have a new book in minutes.
Me, too. For those considering getting one, it isn't that the Kindle isn't durable. I upgraded the first time to get the audio feature, and the second time to get some new features, as well.
My second Kindle got a bit flakey after 3.5 years, but the problem may be that I had too many audio books downloaded. I'm planning to use that one exclusively for audiobooks now, just one book at a time.
