Remember, you will have to report it to the IRS and the bank should be sending you a 1099. Ooops they usually forget to tell you that.

Why is this non-item is still occupying space. Isn't there enough semi-coherent Kindle content already? How about an article on high brow literature, for a change?

People's Bank has over 300 branches. I wonder if it took any bailout money?

I wouldn't move my account from my local bank to a big bank for a Kindle. I might move it from my small local bank to another small local bank for one.

Yes. I can be bought, apparently for books.

People's Bank has large billboards in CT, saying something like "60 years, no bailouts".

Wow, People's United Bank must really hate independent bookstores. Tim to take my money out.

I agree with your sentiment, but times change. eBooks are definitely going to happen. Time for some independent ebook retailers to find a business model.

I do not have any interest to get a Kindle reader or anything of the sort being sold on the market today. I prefer an old fashioned book where I am able to turn the page and make notes on the side of the pages.

You can take notes on a Kindle as well.

I am old school I guess but I love the feeling of holding a book and turning the page at home or on vacation laying out on the beach. I guess you as in cars or women we all have different taste and the Kindle is not for me and it is not my style. I have friends and family who love the Kindle and that is fine but everyone has there taste. Maybe one day soon I will buy a Kindle or the item they sell at Barnes and Noble.
