I got a Kindle as a gift too and I love it as well. I highly recommend you play with it or at least borrow someone's (if they'll let you) if you doubt you'll like it. "Inside Steve's Brain" - Great book on the history of Apple, and the inner workings of the company and the philosophy. "Never Eat Alone" by Keith Ferrazzi on the importance of networking and building relationships. "Trade-Off, Why Some Things Catch On, and Others Don't" "The Pixar Touch" Great history of Pixar and how they came about. "Call me Ted" - Ted Turner's autobiography "How the Mighty Fall" Jim Collins

…and stayed there in what is posssibly the "darkest" time of his life (pre-NeXT and Pixar, and Apple part 2) EDIT: I'm not "speculating" -- this is direct from the book: "The Pixar Touch", unfortunately, there's no source online.

It's in a book called "The Pixar Touch" by David Price I have on order from amazon, but you can read the anecdote here. http://www.amazon.com/Pixar-Touch-Vintage-David-Price/dp/030... It says: John Lasseter has instilled an intense commitment to research in the studio’s creative staff. To prepare for the scene in Finding Nemo in which the fish characters Marlin and Dory become trapped in a whale, two members of the art department climbed inside a dead gray whale that had been stranded north of Marin, California.
