I've wanted this since I saw it, since I became the owner of Kindle. There's just something ironic about an old time look of this book covering technology. It's always been sold out or unavailable. Then one glorious day, the clouds parted and I was able to purchase it. I waited and the day came that I'd been waiting for.  The big brown truck rolled to a stop outside my house, my familiar driver bounding across the yard with my package. A sharp knock and the ring of my bell, and the box was mine.I carefully opened the box... removed the cover... slipped it from it's cellophane wrapping... and p-u! It had this weird smell to it. I was sad, thinking that maybe it would be toxic and I would die from the smell.But it just needed to be aired out, the chemical smell quickly dissipated and I didn't hesitate to take this to bed with me to ready until my heart was content. Most artificial products have weird smells from time to time in the manufacture process, so I'm not going to deduct for it. It wasn't a really bad smell, just a weird one... like plastic and fake leather spray for the car.The best part of this, beyond the aesthetic, has to be the fact that while electronics are banned at work to have out, I feel secure leaving this on my filing cabinet because it truly looks like an aged book.
