    Easy to carry

    This is great. Easy to carry, light, doesn't take up much space. I can store so many books without the bulk. However I still prefer a physical book so I can flip through pages.

    Amazing product

    Sleek design, effortless page turn feature and superb 300 ppi resolution create a top notch reading experience. But its a costly model, though the quality and feaures you get is more than satisfying.

    Received this for a Christmas present. I would have never bought for myself. I thought I liked the old-school way with the paper book. I was wrong. Once I started downloading books I fell in love with it. I gave away all my paperback books. Would never go back to them. It's so easy to use.

    I never wanted to buy an ebook reader but when I saw the mother's day special for $49 I had to buy it. Since then I downloaded around 100 books for free and several books for $1-$3. I'm impressed how long the battery lasts. It took a bit to get used to all the features, creating collections etc. because I bought the kindle without the touch screen. I also should have bought the kindle paperwhite to be able to read in the darkness. Instead I bought a cheap little lamp to clip on my kindle case. Otherwise I'm really happy with it

    I received a Kindle as a present 2 Christmases ago just before I left for a trip to Cuba. It took me a while, but I REALLY like it now! I have downloaded tons of books for free, and discovered new authors in the process - some of them are amazing!
    I recently found a website for free Kindle books - www.onehundredfreebooks.com - I have already downloaded
    a bunch of books, even though I only discovered the website at the end of last week. New books are available twice daily.
    Happy reading!

    I absolutely love my Kindle! It has the best battery life of almost any other e-reader. You really have to work at it to get a glare on it. I took my Kindle on a week long backpacking trip (one of my biggest reasons for buying one...light enough to carry on a backpacking trip). I loved having the choice of more than one book while on the trip. Now I've got my dad hooked and have to buy him a Kindle for Christmas! I also love all of the content available on the Amazon website (and store right from the Kindle). I've been enjoying getting to read new authors in genres that I'm interested in for affordable prices.

    This is like the apple iPad but not as useful. you are only able to read on this device, I would not recommend this device to anyone. It is very one sided.

    I was unconvinced about E-Readers until I got one in my hands. Now I love it! The top benefit is that I no longer have to lug 3 or 4 books along on a trip. I find I have to practise a little discipline in choosing and downloading titles as there is a lot to choose from. I would like to have access to some older books that are not currently available, and I wish my Kindle was compatible with my local library (but Kindle is the only brand my library does not use...so check before you buy).

    I love my Kindle, downloading a book is quick, I love how it stores where I read on the device
    and if I read on my tablet, or phone, it syncs it to the last page I read. No glare when reading in the sun.
    lots of battery life
