Love My Kindle March 11, 2010 S. A. Stevens (Sydney OZ) I Love my Kindle. The best product I have bought to date. I love reading, at times I can be reading 2 or 3 books at once. So carrying all them around or making sure I have the right one at hand can get a bit annoying. I had read the reviews on the Kindle for quite awhile before buying it. It is quite expensive so I wanted to make sure the product was good and that most of the problems were sorted out before purchasing one myself. Well it arrived and I have not been sorry. It travels with me everywhere on the bus and MTR ( HKG train ) and even waiting at the doctors office. I find downloading very easy and as I live in HKG it works and downloads very easily. The fact that I have all the books on hand at a click of a button still gives me a trill. The Kindle 9.7 is a little heavy but then I figured so is the book War and Peace. If you are like me and find that you can read anywhere, any time the kindle is for you. In fact husband feels a little left out, must remember to get him one!
nice screen March 11, 2010 deliah scott I like the bigger screen and the possibility to enlarge the print. Very clear print and graphics, generally easy to handle, didn't have much time yet to play with it. Easy, quick downloads, despite I'm living in an area where I have to use satellite for computer connection!
Picture Perfect PDF's and documents March 11, 2010 Candace Beauchamp (Austin, TX) My wife has had a Kindle 2 since they first came out. I hemmed and hawed over getting a Kindle simply because I read a lot of magazines. I'd heard that many magazines were going to be available in Kindle format, but who really wants to read them on that small of a screen?
Well, I am still waiting for many of my favorite magazines to be available on the Kindle. However, I've found that the larger screen is great for PDF's! Many books and reference materials are available in this format. Are you a student? Many textbooks can be purchased in PDF format for much less that the physical book.
I also use my Kindle DX for reading normal books as well. In low light areas you can enlarge the font and still have plenty of words on the screen. This is not something you would normally want to do on smaller screened book readers.
I love my Kindle DX and I would never go back. I do sometimes miss the feel of a paperback in my hands, but then I realize that I am holding several hundred books all at the same time (many of which were free!)
Love it! March 10, 2010 KJT (Toronto ON) I wasn't certain how I felt about the lack of "romance" of the electronic book reader; I thought I would miss the typeset, the smell of the pages etc. But for what it is intended to do - this is perfect! You can carry hundreds of books around with no effort. For "classics" of course you'll still buy paper - but for travel and especially for work documents, this is a great tool. The greyscale is very easy on the eyes and the battery lasts for days!
Screen Changing automatically March 10, 2010 Floyd Radke (Cincinnati, Ohio) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Kindle DX Wireless Reading Device (9.7" Display, Global Wireless, Latest Generation)
I sometimes read while laying on my side. It would be better if the screen orientation
was controlled manually instead of automatically.
