Amazon Kindle DX Review

Amazon is the biggest book retailer in the world. No wonder Jeff Bezos decided to take a opportunity on the ebook market and enter in this market with kindle 1.0 and now kindle 2.0. kindle 1.0 was a revolutionary device. Ebook readers have been around for a while but none came with the set of features that you get with Amazon Kindle 1G. You not only got a set of innovative features but also constant connectivity to the Internet without any monthly fees. As great as the first Kindle was, the only way for Amazon to go was up. The Amazon team got back to work and looked at the main issues with Kindle 1.0 (design, battery, connection speed, and software) and came up with Kindle 2.0.

Kindle 2.0 is a major correction on Kindle 1.0. Many establish issues have been addresses and Amazon has added a new set of features for those who are heavy book consumers. Here is how Kindle 2.0 stacks up against Kindle 1.0:

• Screen: both devices have the same screen size and the same resolution. Kindle 2.0 may look more tantalizing but the screen size hasn't changed.
• Grey Level: the E-ink technology used on the new device is much best than its predecessor. The grey level has been increased to 16.
• Weight: Kindle 2G is slightly lighter than its predecessor, though the variation is very negligible.
• Thickness: The new Kindle is thinner than its predecessor by two folds. It's even thinner than iPhone 3G.
• Battery: the battery lasts for twice as long on the new reader in comparison to the old one.
• New features: Amazon has added a new controller and text-to-speech technology to their new reader in order to make Kindle 2.0 more user friendly. The 3G wireless technology makes connections faster as well.

The new Amazon reader is not for everyone. While the device has been improved in many areas, it still costs 9. Many habitancy have already upgraded to the new Kindle, but you can still read books and get the best Amazon has to offer with your old reader. But, if your old reader is broken or you are finding for an thorough best reading experience, you should think buying the new reader.
