Kindle is as easy to hold and use as a book. designed it with long-form reading in mind. When reading for long periods of time, people naturally shift positions and often like to read with one hand. Kindle's page-turning buttons are located on both sides, allowing you to read and turn pages comfortably with one hand from any position. The page-turn buttons now flex inward to prevent any accidental page turns when picking up or handling Kindle. Less

I'm a 23 year old engineering student whose main interest is cars and PDA's, and this is the mother of all PDA's.

I began my first experience with PDA's (which I believe stands for Personal Digital Assistant) back in 1998 when the Palm III came out and it was great, but I didn't use it... Read full review »

Love this machine when it works. Unfortunately, it doesn't love me. My first one had a dead spot on the touch sensitive screen.

Pros Well thought out and capable
Cons Expensive to buy and to populate
Recommended it? Yes

Think of most anything invented in the 15th century and you will find it outdated and supplanted by something invented later. But one invention of that era has only been improved on slightly and perfected. That is the printed book. It is a technology just as germane to today's computer and internet... Read full review »
