Amazon Kindle

While it's not the sleekest looking gadget out there, Amazon's new Kindle ($400) may finally make eBooks mainstream. The portable reading device uses free, built-in EVDO wireless to download digital books, magazines, newspapers and blogs for reading on the go. It sports a super crisp E-ink display that works great even in bright sunlight, and can hold over 200 titles. There are almost 90,000 books now available for Kindle, with most costing $10.
