Why This Non-Techie Person Loves the Kindle Wireless Reader

Lighter than a paperback, more powerful than WiFi, able to leap the library in a single, uh, click? - it's Kindle, the wireless reading device by Amazon.

The Kindle Wireless Reader from Amazon is the perfect anytime gift for your favorite book lover, or for yourself. Kindle is simple to use, no computer required.  Read your favorite books, newspapers, blogs, or even your own personal documents with Kindle - anywhere!  What's more, there's no monthly fee! I love my Kindle!

Here's my take on Kindle, from my first look at the original Kindle, to the improvements of the Kindle 2, and now my impressions of the new, large screen Kindle DX.

What IS this world coming to?  Looks like it's coming to Kindle.  Read on. . .


Wait! What's this I'm hearing about a big-screen Kindle?
It's true! It's the Amazon Kindle DX Big Screen E-Reader. Check it out!

What's So Special About the Amazon Kindle? 

Find out why this non-techie girl who can barely turn on her cell phone fell in love with Kindle.

Kindle 2 controlsYou can read all about it and buy a Kindle here. In the meantime, here are some highlights and observations that first struck me from the video presentations and after reading about the Amazon Kindle.

  • The screen is not backlit, so the display is easy to read, even outdoors in the sun. The display, in fact, gives the illusion of reading from paper. No glare like you get from a computer screen.

  • It's small, compact, and lightweight (the Kindle2 weighs 10.2 ounces), about the size of a paperback book. The controls are set up for both right and left-handed users and appear to be very simple and convenient.

  • You can do everything, searches, purchases, and downloads, without a computer or even a hotspot - and without a service plan or monthly fee. Now, that's quite a selling point!

  • The battery charge lasts for days. "Read War and Peace on a single charge," or so they said for the original Kindle. The Kindle 2 battery lasts 25% longer; turn off the wireless connection and read for two weeks without a charge!

  • I like the cute little dog-ear bookmark feature. I like the adjustable text size, perfect for those of us who need reading glasses.

  • It's interesting that everything you buy or download to your Kindle is backed up at amazon.com, so you can access it in the event that something happens to your reader.

  • You can subscribe to newspapers or magazines with the new editions updated and delivered automatically. There's a built-in dictionary, as well as a word search feature, and a subscription to Wikipedia is included.

  • The original Kindle holds 200 books or more with a memory card available to hold even more. The Kindle 2 (the 6-inch Kindle) holds 1500 books and the large-screen Kindle DX holds 3500, no memory card needed!

  • The Amazon Kindle really is handy and non-cumbersome, light and easy to use, perfect for anyone on the go - or even just for convenience at home. For me, trying to handle a book comfortably while reading in bed can be difficult. The size, shape, and weight of the Kindle makes it a perfect solution.

  • Did we mention that Kindle 2 talks? Oh, yes. Text to speech, in a voice named Tom. The quality isn't bad, either.
Of course Amazon fully supports Kindle in every way. You can read FAQ's as well as download the Kindle's User Guide on the Amazon Kindle Support page.

Meet Kindle DX, the New Big Screen Kindle 

The large screen of the third-generation Kindle DX broadens wonderful new horizons for a wide range of users.

Amazon Kindle DX Big Screen



The new Kindle DX, introduced on May 6, 2009, has a 9.7-inch screen (compared to Kindle 2's 6-inch screen). Weighing in at just 18.9 ounces, the DX has a capacity of 3500 books, periodicals, or documents. The great news is that Amazon has teamed with multiple textbook publishers, several universities, as well as three major newspapers (so far) to further the scope of materials available in Kindle format. Watch for Kindle version textbooks to appear for sale in the Kindle store this summer, as well as special subscription deals from The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Boston Globe. Update! The Kindle DX sold out quickly. Order yours now to reserve your place in line. Estimated delivery time is three to five weeks.

Here's my take on the big-screen Kindle DX or use this link to find out everything you need to know about or to order your own Kindle DX.

Why Would a Non-Techie Person Like Me Want a Kindle? 

(or, Hey, how do you turn this thing on?)

amazon kindle wireless readerI'll admit it, I can barely work my prepaid cell phone. So, why would a non-techie person like me want an Amazon Kindle? I can think of a few reasons . . . (Sweetie, are you listening?)
  • It's easier to handle than a big, cumbersome best-selling hardcover book.
  • There's no monthly fee, no commitments.
  • I can take it on a trip or vacation with reading material all loaded up and ready to go. Then I can load it up with the book that my new friend on the plane was reading - and convinced me I should read, too.
  • There's no computer required, no searching for a wifi "hotspot." That truly is portability.
  • It's actually simple to use, to turn pages, to bookmark my spot or make notes or highlight selected text.
  • The font size is adjustable. It'll adapt to whichever pair of glasses I'm wearing. (So, my eyes are middle aged. Yours will be, too, someday.)
  • When traveling, I can have access to a daily newspaper without having to find a newsstand. For that matter, I can read my daily newspaper before I even get up out of bed. Now, that's convenience!

Does it feel as if you're fighting your body to lose even one pound-or just to maintain your current weight? Respected health and wellness expert and bestselling author Jillian Michaels has been there, too.

In Master Your Metabolism, discover how to:
%u2022REMOVE "anti-nutrients" from your diet
%u2022RESTORE foods that speak directly to fat-burning genes
%u2022REBALANCE energy and your hormones for effortless weight loss

Another reason to choose Kindle: Read Kindle on your iPhone or iPod Touch - FREE! 

Apple Meets Kindle, Introduced by Whispersync

The Amazon Kindle app for iPhone and iPod Touch is now available FREE from Apple's App Store. The app not only enables you to read on your i-device, synchronizes your reading with the content on your Kindle.

What do we mean by synchronize? Let's say you're reading War and Peace on your Kindle and you stop at page 400 to run an errand. Say you're now standing in a long line at the post office with nothing to do but wait. You could read, but you forgot to bring your Kindle. (Don't you hate it when that happens?) Hold on! You have your iPhone with you (or your iPod Touch) and your i-device has the Amazon Kindle app. Open to War and Peace, page 400, and read on. Now, say you read to page 405, mailed your package, then hustled back home. You settle back into your comfy reading chair and pick up your Kindle to read again, open War and Peace and page 405 is waiting for you. Simply pick right up where you left off. Ah, the wonders of Kindle and Whispersync!

Well, you certainly educated me here. I'm low tech--just got a computer less than a year ago, no cell phone or any of the other devices. We'll probably all have Kindles down the line, but do we really need a wardrobe for every occassion? My, my, my--perhaps one should develop other possible accessories, but what, hmmm...............

I love my kindle.

I didn't like any of the cases so I made my own. I started a lens to help others do the same. I'm still working on it. I need to change the directions to fit any of the three kindles (and any other sizes Amazon decides to make).

You can watch my progress on developing the Kindle Pouch Lens.

I have pictures of it on Amazon (and will bring them to the lens when I get my PC working again).

I just got one too and absolutely share your enthusiasm! I think for sure this is the wave of the future and newspapers and books will soon go the way of horse and buggy...and a lot of trees will be saved in the meantime! I can't get over how convenient and easy it is - I am actually going to see if I can get one for my mother for her birthday. DreamJob123
