Amazon Kindle DX Review

The Amazon kindle is an electronic expedient that can store about 1500 books. It can also read newspapers, magazines and blogs. It is wireless but there are no monthly fees for service, service plans or hunting for Wi-fi hotspots. If you love books and gadgets this may be the exquisite new toy for you, or a friend, it makes a great gift. I received my kindle 2 for my birthday, not telling you which one but lets just say we are not putting all the candles on the cake anymore. Anyway, I was not sure if I would like it when I got it. I love books, so I was skeptical. I have had it now a few months and let me tell you why I think it is worth the purchase:

1. It is lighter than your typical paperback 10.2 ounces. Which is great if you read a lot and get readers cramp from keeping the book. The kindle 2 is a lot more comfortable to hold.
2. There are over 300,000 books ready in the Kindle book format and more are added all the time. It is easy to buy Kindle books you can download books from your Kindle or you can download books online at the Kindle store.
3. The Kindle 2 is extremely user friendly and easy to navigate. It has buttons on either side to turn the page instead of scrolling down a page like the computer.
4. One of the best things is the clarity of the page. I find it easier to read than many paperback books because the letters are crisper. You can make the print larger but I do not need to. You will be amazed at the ease of reading with the Kindle.
5. If you read a lot downloading books in electronic format is much more cost sufficient than purchasing paperback editions and if you commonly buy hardbacks you save even more.
6. You do not have to drive to the bookstore or library (which saves Co2 emissions as well as the price for gas). You do not have to wait a week for the book to be delivered; the download from Amazon takes less than a minute.
7. Reading on the Kindle is much more eco-friendly, so you can help the environment and still get your reading fix.
8. The Kindle is exquisite for travel, if you take social transportation, while waiting at the doctors office or in line. It is easy to pull out and it remembers your place so you do not have to worry about your bookmark falling out. It is just over 1/3 inch thick so it fits into your purse or backpack so you can absolutely bring it with you.
9. The Amazon Kindle also delivers newspapers so you can stay current on the run. It is delivered automatically and wireless so it is waiting for you first thing in the morning. You might even be able to get your home town paper and international papers are ready too. And get this, it is cheaper than a printed subscription.
10. Do you like to read in bed? It is quieter than turning the pages of a book if your partner is fussy like mine.
11. You can even have access to more than 5000 blogs and news feeds. With full text content and images.
12. The rechargeable battery can last for any days of reading you can even read while it is in charging mode.
13. Oh, I approximately forgot my favorite thing you can underline foremost passages and add annotations to the text.
14. Another thing I just love, you can feature a word and it has a built-in dictionary for instant lookup. And wireless access to Wikipedia.
15. The free samples of books are longer commonly a part or two so you can absolutely see if the book is for you before you buy it.
16. There are a lot more features, like it has text-to-speech so it can read to you. Pdf conversion so you can carry a lot of documents instead of carrying large heavy files. I admit I do not use these features but they might be your favorite features.
17. I do not have the box of used books I keep spellbinding nearby until I take them to Goodwill.
18. If you know someone who seems to have everything, the Kindle may be the exquisite gift. And if they have a Kindle already, you can buy some electronic reading material for them, a gift card, a kindle case, kindle accessories, there is a lot of fun Kindle gear.

The price to buy a Kindle may be a bit high, but if you are an avid reader or naturally need a portable expedient to pass the time on social communication or just want to make waiting more fun, the Amazon Kindle is certainly worth the investment.
