Re: Amazon Kindle
Besides books you can arrange to get newspapers, periodicals, magazines, blogs, news letters and news groups all delivered to your one device. All this can be arranged, sorted and searched with a free software application called Calibre. Check it out on the web it is well worth a look!

I've recently got one and it's great. Books are cheap and you can easily put PDFs on which has come in quite useful. |

Re: Amazon Kindle
Whilst on holiday in March, the hotel offered free wifi and I was able to check our flights home and also my emails on the Kindle.
We paid £109 (now £111-due to vat increase!) for the regular Kindle 3. There is a 3G Kindle available for around £150. |

Re: Amazon Kindle
I was dead against the kindle when my partner first mentioned it to me, I read alot of books and was admanant I'd miss the feel of book and completely dismissed it.
Then his mum bought one and after looking at it I changed my mind. I've had mine for a few months now and it's brilliant, the books are cheaper and the display is really crisp and easy to read. Its not as cumbersome as a book when your reading in bed. I don't miss my hardbacks or paperbacks one bit! |
Re: Amazon Kindle
just one thing to point out ...books do not have vat on them but e-books do as they are classed as software by the nice taxman so beware .

Re: Amazon Kindle
im sure my sons android tablet can read these kindle books as well as many other uses like angry birds lol
also play movies,surf the net, store photos and hundres of free apps kindle just seems pretty limited for the money when for the same money you can buy a basic 10" android tablet which will do what the kindle does and lots more |
