If you haven't heard of The Amazon Kindle (now the Kindle 2), then please allow me to introduce you to one of the most exciting products to come around in ages for those who love to read.
What is so great about the Amazon Kindle?
- First and foremost, imagine being able to find a book you want to read on Amazon and having it shipped to you IMMEDIATELY. No, I don't mean through snail mail, but have said volume in your hands seconds after ordering.
- Unlike reading on a laptop or computer monitor, Amazon Kindle's electronic paper looks just like a book should. No eye strain. No need for a backlight.
- It's small and portable and you can carry more than one book with you at a time. In fact, you can carry hundreds.
- Not only can you read books, but newspapers, magazines and even popular blogs.
- To buy books, you won't need to find a wi-fi area. Amazon's Whispernet allows you to order books from anywhere.
- It's green! Okay, I know you're saying, "No! It's white!" But seriously, with all the paper you'll be sparing by reading your newspapers, books and magazines on the Kindle, you could consider yourself on the brink of a revolution!
The Kindle allows you to carry your library with you where you go! How cool is that?
I believe that the Kindle Reader is an excellent example of a technology that asks us to rethink the way we read books, and all other written medium for that matter.

Isn't it interesting that the Kindle is called the "Kindle"? Reminiscent of Bradbury and the burning of books isn't it...

I bought a refurbished Kindle DX last week for $390. The original was $489. I had to buy an AC plug separately because the item didn’t have one.
And couple of days later they sell the newest one for $379!
This is cheating! Amazon just dumped the old crap for $390 and this week they’re selling the new items. They should have released the new Kindle first and then sell the old crap.
Amazon is not even responding to my calls.
Amazon sucks!

The Kindle is here to stay no matter what other e-readers come on the market.

@Jeff Amazon is not that bad, in the end we all have something in common with them. Me and my http://kindlecovers.co.uk for instance created good working relationship with them.

A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him.

i just saw on the news today that Ebooks for Kindle only represents 6% of the whole book market. The Amazon Kindle is such an amazing product that figure can only grow!

The popularity of the Kindle shows that people on the go still like to read. It is really inspiring to see this trend. Maybe this will tilt the scales and we will become the reading generation.

This is known that cash can make us autonomous. But what to do when someone has no cash? The only one way is to get the business loans or just college loan.

Christmas is probably the most special day of the year for children. One thing that makes it special is the popular tradition of Santa Claus.
