Kindle Wireless Reading Device -- I ♥ Love ♥ This Gadget!

You got to know that the experts are buzzing, as are bestselling authors, about the Kindle Wireless Reading Device from Amazon! IMHO, the Kindle is the future of reading. Why pack a paperback book when you can pack your Kindle with a capacity to hold over 200 titles? It's lightweight, wireless, and customizable with 6 different font sizes.

My hubby too is all-a-buzz about this wireless reader. You see, he develops pressroom products for the Graphic Arts Industry; i.e. the PRINTING industry -- this type of computer gadget CAN definitely impact the future of printing!

In our household, you'd call us early adaptors! What's that mean ... simply put, we are ahead of the mainstream when it comes to new technology. So, with the Kindle, considering that we're connected to the future of the printing industry, we still GOT TO HAVE IT! You can bet that it's got my hubby's attention ... have I got yours?

P.S. I've updated this lens with some very cool pictures of the Amazon Kindle as I've become acquainted it it ... up close and personal you could say.

Amazon really needs to package a Amazon-logoed paperclip in the cool box with the Kindle. I needed to remove the back cover and insert a paperclip in the reset button to get the Kindle to reset.

Be sure to charge completely the battery. Within 24 hours of use, I've had to recharge twice.

Do not try to multi-task when downloading sample chapters of ebooks to your Kindle ... some of the Eastern European ebooks I was browsing have price tags approaching $100/ea!
