4 out of 5 stars Good size, not within whispernet access   March 12, 2010
Mark Daniels (Longview, WA)
I am just adressing the size and whispernet connection issues.
I was afraid that the smaller kindle would not handle newspapers and magazines well, but due to how these periodicals are formatted, that is no problem. Graphs are a problem. They often appear embedded within the text, too small to read, but the solution isn't the larger kindle, it is either publishing them in larger format or allowing them to be expanded to full size screen, and rotated when appropriate. For school work and professional publications, the larger kindle would be well worth the cost, but only if the charts and graphs can be expanded. The moderate expansion due only to a larger screen probably won't meet strigent analysis of graphics.
I do not receive whispernet at my home, which is a frequent problem in mountainous states. ((P.S., their coverage maps lie. If you live in hilly terrain, you know what I mean. Supposedly I have top coverage around my home. Actual service is much less than mapped. I need to be nearly 7 miles from home before I receive spotty connection.) This is not a problem when I travel into town, but I don't do that frequently, so I have to download through the computer. I can't emphasize how convenient whispernet is, if it works, or how cumbersome it is to update the kindle without. Currently you have to manually synch and update each item separately, which is terribly cumbersome compared to whispernet. The auto archive and disposal features of outdated periodicals also doesn't work through the internet connection. Amazon needs a one-click button on the internet to synch and update. It would really be great if I didn't have to formally log onto "my kindle", just select "update and synch" on the kindle menu once the kindle is plugged into the computer. You might want to reconsider subscriptions unless you have access to whispernet. My newspaper subscription is semi-useless. I find I just don't bother going through the download process on a daily basis. Actually, come to think about it, I have a home network. I would dearly love a wireless device to plug into my kindle that would update automatically. I could just plug the wireless device in and have my kindle automatically updated. That would be very cool. Are you listening Amazon? Wifi would be a great alternative when whispernet is not available.



5 out of 5 stars Kindle is Kwick and Kool   March 12, 2010
Pam (Boston, MA USA)
I have been and e-reader holdout because I couldn't imagine holding a small device instead of a book. Recently I decided it would be worthwhile to purchase one. After a great deal of research on available e-readers, I chose Kindle 2. I found the reviews, good, bad and indifferent very helpful. I've had my K2 for a week now. I'm very pleased with it! The speed at which it downloads books is not exaggerated. I purchased 2 books and also downloaded 19 free books as soon as it came out of the box. I have no problem reading the K2; the e-ink does have the appearance of a book, and the pages change quickly. I also have Kindle on my I-phone, very convenient! I love the size of the K2!

My only concerns with K2 are that the back is slippery, and due to it's size, it seems fragile, even though it may not be. No problem, as I had already ordered a JavoEdge, flip case for it. In the case, my K2 is no longer slippery and feels just right, and the case is a beauty!

All in all, I would recommend the K2. It's a great gadget!



5 out of 5 stars Best Thing Ever!   March 12, 2010
S. OBryan (Louisville, KY)
I received my new Kindle several days ago, and love it so much! It is very easy to use. The reading screen is a perfect size, and the readability and look of the pages is absolutely fantastic. I love to read while eating lunch at my desk. With paperback books, you basically have to eat with one hand, or weight down one side of the book to keep the pages open while you read. No problem with the Kindle! Ever tried to read outside while the pages of your book keep blowing over? No problem with the Kindle! And, it's comforting to be able to have all your favorite books with you all the time. They've thought of everything a reader would want in an electronic book. I can't praise it enough.

I love my Kindle! It is so easy to take places and very easy to purchase items. The only thing I wish it had was a back light so when reading in the dark you have a built in light.
