My Favorite Technological Innovation of 2008 September 5, 2008

I love the Kindle. It has brought the joy of reading back into my life. Amazon really nailed it. I've bought 2 others since for gifts for my wife and assistant. Highly recommended.
Kindle the new book September 5, 2008

The Kindle is a remarkable device the only limiting thing I have found is that the research (in my case) books for archaeology is limited, hopefully this will change in the future but that was the principle reason for my purchase.
Still of the books I have read and taken clippings from it has been a very helpful device. Also it is a pleasure to read as the pages are not back lit it doesn't bother the eyes as much as a computer screen.

 Kindle Not So Great September 5, 2008
2 out of 9 found this review helpful
I bought this gift for my daughter's 17th birthday. The Kindle device had problems with getting a strong signal and was very slow every time I tried to navigate between different screens. Most times, the Kindle device would freeze and lock up. I was able to download books successfully from my Amazon account. The Kindle advertisements bragged about download in less than 1 minute, but actually took closer to 10 minutes. I also attempted to download some books for a 5-year old, but found a traditional book with color and pictures to be much more stimulating for a young child. Also, the selection of books for a 5-year old are not very good. My Kindle is now dead, less than 2 weeks after my daughter opened this for her birthday. I plan to return it for a refund.

i freely admit to being an overly enthusiastic early adopter. I waited a while before getting mine and i use it daily. I love it. i read more now than before i got it. happy happy
 Nice, but needs work on the battery September 5, 2008
1 out of 8 found this review helpful
Bought it in June and the battery already can't hold a charge. Have not used in much and was out for the month of August. Amazon needs to address this issue. You need to buy extra batteries if you want to use on the go. If you use it by an outlet it is good.
