The Power of the Amazon Kindle

101 25
The Kindle has taken the reading industry by storm, and shows no signs of slowing down. Also, at prices as low as £89, it's not going to cost you a fortune like some of its competitors. And for just £60 more, you get free 3G worldwide, meaning you can download a new book wherever you are, whenever you want to. And even if you choose to purchase the less expensive wifi Kindle, you can still download books wherever there are wifi hotspots or with your wireless Internet at your home. While the price may be a bit steep for some, the time and money it saves makes the original investment very worthwhile.

The Kindle has also proved to be very convenient. Unlike many tablets, such as the very popular Apple iPad, the Kindle has no problems with glare, so you can read it anywhere. Also, its small size allows for very easy storage and it is very light, making it easy to lay back and relax while enjoying a novel. They sport a 6 inch display, and weigh a mere 170 grams. The Kindle can hold up to 1,400 books and has a battery life of up to 1 month, meaning you can carry your own virtual bookstore in the palm of your hand.

The Kindle also has many other attractive features. The Kindle marketplace contains books, newspapers, and magazines, more. It does not only contain bestsellers, either. The Kindle comes with 900,000 reading choices, and many of them are offered completely free. While many of the books will cost you something, Amazon attempts to keep their prices below what you will have to pay at book stores. Also, they offer free samples so it is easier to tell whether it is the type of book you are looking for.

If you are irresponsible when it comes to keeping track of your books, then you are in luck. All of your downloaded books are backed up in the cloud, so you can easily re-download them when you need them. Another cool feature of the Kindle is its ability to easily look up the definitions of over 250,000 words without interrupting your reading session, which can be very helpful, especially with certain novels. Two final noteworthy features are the ability to save the page you're on and the ability to change the size of the text to your liking.

The Kindle Keyboard, which is the version with 3G capability, has some slightly different features than the original Kindle. It weighs 77 more grams, but can hold up to 3,500 books, which is a much higher carrying capacity than that of the other Kindle. Another very cool feature is its ability to read text, in the English language, to you. The main perk of the Kindle Keyboard, however is its ability to download books globally, whenever you decide you're ready for a new book.

So, if you are a reading fan and are looking to take your book reading to the next level, you should definitely look into purchasing a Kindle. Whether it is the Kindle Keyboard or just the original Kindle, the advantages it gives you over having to rely on physical books is incredible. Neither version is terribly expensive and it could really save a lot of money and wasted time in the long run.
