Just downloaded and started reading and it occurred to me... Book club! The only thing better than reading Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson is reading and sharing it with all of you. (Hey, what better book to get us started with, right?)

So pour yourself a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, pull up your comfiest reading chair, and lets get started.

Thoughts, reviews, feelings, critiques, anything welcome.

I've only read the introduction so far and I'm hooked. Time to start Jobs childhood. Wonder when I'll be able to put this down?

Anyone else feel a little weird reading a biography about a man that created the device your reading it on?

Getting now and will start reading it at lunch.

Just grabbed it too. Reading the intro!

Beamed over the interwebz from my iPhone 4S using Siri.

Got it on my Kindle last night before heading to bed. I did read the intro, and saved the good stuff for today. Gonna get started soon. Not much productivity-wise going to happen today.

Dagnabit, I'm falling behind. Just got past the introduction and I still have work to do before I can continue. :-/

I normally buy my books in Kindle format, but I bought this one from iBooks as a tribute to Steve. Just starting to read it.

Soooo tempted to skip ahead and read some of the later chapters first but so far I've resisted that temptation. I just know I'm going to start hearing bits from the book in the press before I've read that far myself. I read Alan Sugar's autobiography last week while on holiday - a very good read and highly recommended. If only Steve's biography had been released last week then I could have read it too.

Bought the iBooks format and should receive the hardback tomorrow from Amazon. I think I'll stick that on the shelf and stick to the iPad. Seems the "right" thing to do somehow.

Download begin on my pre-order this AM. I saw the Tweet regarding this book club and so stopping by to say hello. Digging into the intro now. Gonna by the hardcover later this week.
