| At 10.2 ounces, Kindle is lighter than a typical paperback and as thin as most magazines. Barely a third of an inch in profile, you'll find Kindle fits perfectly in your hands. Kindle is as easy to hold and use as a book. We designed it with long-form reading in mind. When reading for long periods of time, people naturally shift positions and often like to read with one hand. Kindle's page-turning buttons are located on both sides, allowing you to read and turn pages comfortably with one hand from any position. The page-turn buttons now flex inward to prevent any accidental page turns when picking up or handling Kindle. Kindle has a new easy-to-use 5-way controller, enabling precise on-screen navigation for selecting text to highlight or looking up words. Kindle is completely wireless and ready to use right out of the box--no setup, no cables, no computer required. With Kindle's 25% longer battery life, you can read on a single charge for up to 4 days with wireless on. Turn wireless off and read for up to 2 weeks. Battery life will vary based on wireless usage, such as shopping the Kindle Store and downloading content. In low coverage areas or in 1xRTT only coverage, wireless usage will consume battery power more quickly. Whispernet utilizes Amazon's optimized technology plus Sprint's national high-speed (3G) data network to enable you to wirelessly search, discover, and download content on the go. Your books and periodicals are delivered via Whispernet in less than 60 seconds. And unlike WiFi, you never have to hunt for a hotspot. |

 Books not avalible |

| Reviewer: Geoff, |
| I have had this kindle for more that a year and use it almost daily. More and more I have had to go back to books stores as the books avalible seem to be very very limited. Right now on my Kindle it says "send us your input at kindle-feedback@amazon,com" Try to find this, they do not want communication. I am now looking at other readers to be able to get books that I want, not what they want to sell. Think they will read this , hardly, the are no real people to call or discuss this with. |
Best e-reader at the best price.

| I wanted to give an e-reader as a gift to my wife. I researched every one I could find: Nook, iPad, etc. This thing just does what it does without a lot of hype. Simple, light, user-friendly, long battery life between charges. You can pay more, but if what you want is simple and economical you have to consider the Kindle. |
Love the Kindle!

| I had a 1st generation Kindle and I upgraded to this 2nd Gen. It's much better and still has the Wispernet, which is great. I read so much and I would have to carry those books - but I use the Kindle everyday, and have since they first came out. Even if you think you won't like reading this way - try it.... find someone you know who has one and check it out - because it is way better than you think. |
the best thing ever

I love my Kindle for most of my life I have loved reading and I almost always have a book with me whereever I go,now with the Kindle I can bring along a whole library.
The display is easy to read even in sunlight and I like that you can change the font size and have you ever been reading something only to have to go look up a word you have just read with the included dictionary just point the curser to the word and the definition appears at the bottom of the page.
I could go on and on so lets just say that I love my Kindle |
