Haven't got a Kindle, mine's a Sony eReader. But I have to agree that it has profoundly changed the way I manage my reading. I have a daily commute by train and the ereader is a lot more practical than carrying one or more books around. It's also a lot handier travelling - I can pack multiple books, I never run out and it fits easily in carry-on. I can honestly say that I generally don't buy hard copies any more. Haven't got rid of books around the house, but I am not adding to the library. Use my iPad for mobile computing and keep the ereader strickly for reading - the battery lasts a lot longer on the Sony.
