Let's face it, the Amazon Kindle is one of the hottest gadgets around especially for bookworms. Now if you're the type of person who doesn't want to bring a laptop on their trip or a smartphone but would prefer to have a good book, the Amazon Kindle will allow you to carry all the books you need without adding extra to your baggage.

Plus if you're in a foreign country and you're missing your New York Times, you can easily download or get these issues through your Kindle. Not bad though of course, since the first generation Kindle uses EVDO technology, I really don't know if that would work in countries that does not support EVDO.

Anyways, the Kindle is definitely one must-have gadget for bookworms who love traveling.
