amazon kindle review

The Kindle only allows the reading of Amazon DRM-protected content.

Ebook readers have extremely high contrast/readability and are extremely energy-efficient, being able to display several thousand pages of material without needing to recharge. eBooks are a narrow product, but they have their own ways in which PMPs cannot compete.

If you read some of the Kindle discussion groups, you'll see people complaining about "no backlighting", and then a few days/weeks later they will be lauding the fact that it has no backlighting.

Hack let you convert encrypted Mobipocket files that were intended for another reader so that that work on Kindle.

Amazon's Kindle Fire: $199 tablet is focused on ‘lean-back experiences'

When planning my review of the Kindle Fire , I knew I'd need two things: time, and a big list of music, movies, and books I wanted to dive into. I say that because I assumed going into the review that the Fire wasn't about to take the place of my laptop. The Android-powered, 7-inch device didn't exactly strike me as a productivity machine (at least when you look at the specs), and knowing the ... ...link to new window

Fire it Up: Amazon's Kindle Fire (REVIEW)

When the Kindle Fire, Amazon's first tablet, was announced in early October, people went wild for it, thinking it would be the iPad killer. Now, after about a month of its being out, it is clear that it is no iPad killer, and since its release there have been some complaints about its performance. Still, the Kindle Fire just might break the market as a solid tablet for a price that you can't ... ...link to new window
