 LOVE my Kindle! March 10, 2010

I really love my Kindle -- it is my favorite toy. I'm a voracious reader and enjoy reading all sorts of books from mysteries to biography, action-adventure, history, and current events. While I love getting books from my public library, they don't always have what I want and I hate being without something good to read when traveling or when snowed in at home. Being able to download a new purchase (even slowly due to our rural location) is a real luxury.
The Kindle is easy to use and seemed a natural way to read after only a couple of chapters.
How Did I Ever Live Without a Kindle? March 10, 2010

Love the portability of having a newspaper, magazine or book all in one convenient Kindle - plus we're saving trees! Slim and lightweight! I carry my Kindle everywhere I go which encourages me to read the articles and the books that I have downloaded. I wish that the Kindle displayed the time of day - but other than that it is worth more than what I paid.

I like the hardware very much, it is easy to use and friendly. I do not miss printed paper at all, I just wish there were more titles and some books in other languages (i.e. Spanish or Italian)
Kindle: full of surprises March 10, 2010

I now have been using my kindle for three weeks. I was initially impressed by the helpfulness of the kindle community, which is essential reading for a new owner.
The speed of delivery was impressive - four days from the USA to my door-step on the South Coast of New South Wales, Australia.
Initially, I found the page small by paperback standards. However, after purchasing a leather jacket and after an hour of reading I soon realised that the book reading pleasure in my later life is greatly enhanced. The convenience of print size, portabiulity and the excellent wireless connection and fast downloads from the Amazon store are outstanding achievements. I am particuilarly impressed by the free first chaper (- or more) sample of an enormous range of books. Prices from Amazon are fair and cheaper than most sites I have found and it is not too difficult to download and reformat other Ebooks, especially classics from the Guthenburg site.
As a life long reader, this is the most rewarding reading experience I have yet encountered. Now my wife wants one!
