The thing to remember about the Kindle is, it's basically a primitive version of the PADD from ST:TNG. It has Wi-Fi, Internet, can read almost* any text file format including .pdf and several others. I know from experience that lugging a bunch of RPG books in a carry-on sucks, so that functionality is very welcome.
The Kindle isn't a replacement for books, but it is a fantastic gizmo in its own right.
