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

It has been 3 years that I resisted temptation to get a new PDA, mainly because my Sony Clie PEG-NX60 did such a great job with my daily routine that it simply wasn't necessary for another incremental improvement for a significant expense. Well, things change, and while I would not consider... Read full review »

My teenage daughter has been bugging me for months now to get her a laptop or PDA so she could use it for her school work. I guess I waited a bit too long to get her one before school got out since she has less than two weeks to go before summer vacation. I decided that the laptop was going to be... Read full review »

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Think of most anything invented in the 15th century and you will find it outdated and supplanted by something invented later.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 »
