The new Amazon Kindle 2 Wireless eBook Reader is the amazing new little device that puts thousands of books right into your hand. It ways only 10 ounces, 10.2 ounces, lighter than a typical paperback. It wirelessly delivers books to you in less then 30 seconds with no PC required.
I got my leather Kindle cover from Oberon Designs, and it's beautiful—better than I expected, in fact. The website says that this design is on the front only, but mine is on both front and back. It feels good in my hands and seems like a very solid protection for my Kindle.
One clutter-killing Kindle can hold about 200 books. And while other e-readers such as Sony's Reader must connect through a USB port to upload content, the Kindle is a wireless device, thanks to Whispernet, which is powered by Sprint's high-speed data network.
Subscriptions I want the Kindle to be just a handheld universal reader. E-Books, PDF, text files, saved HTML files. The Kindle wasn't available for sale until November 2007. You can put your own documents, including PDFs, on the Kindle. (also DOC, HTML, PDB, PRC, MOBI, TXT) Email Address:

Unfortunately, this always-on connection seems to be the main roadblock to get free content (Amazon pays for the bandwidth). I feel that $399 is simply too much and It is necessary that users have access to *free content* (in addition to paid content), via USB. Also there’s no support for PD...

i Hate the college textbook publishing industry…they publish new editions every semester; when they’re nearly identical Why would Amazon outbid McGraw? Amazon = device provider, McGraw = content provider. Two different levels in the chain.

Neither Sony nor Amazon would say how many machines they have sold, but enough people apparently are interested in trying them out. An Amazon executive at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week said the Kindle sold out on its first day in 5-1/2 hours.

Shuns, John, Converting normal or easy text, word doc or pdf file to kindle is quite easy but if the pdf file consists of lot of images and tables the conversion process does not work properly and the whole layout of the ebook gets change.

People bitch about a lack of Wi-Fi, but as a fan of wide-area wireless, I think Sprint's EV-DO was a good way to go, because it's available in more places. And as far as the lack of backlight, I am inclined to believe the messaging from both Amazon and Sony, that E-Ink is easier on the eyes than an...
