Love it - perfect for training March 15, 2010 J - Nagoya (Nagoya - Japan) As a very regular business traveller living in Japan my Kindle is fantastic allowing me to access English books in an instant and to always have a selection on hand. No more carrying 2-3 books on long haul trips - instead I have 10-15 on my Kindle.
I was so impressed with the ease of use and the access that I bought one for my daughter to encourage reading.
Wonderful March 15, 2010 M. Redmond The Kindle lives up to the advertisements. It is easy to read, easy to hold, downloads are quick. Great for anyone who might need a larger font size also. I did not realize that some books come with text-to-speech, also a bonus that one could use by times. Glad to see that more books are being added continuously in Kindle format.
Kindle March 14, 2010 Sharraine Dreyer (USA) My husband gave me a Kindle for Valentines Day. (He never was one for flowers) I really love it. This is such an easy way to read. We just returned from a trip to Az. I finished a book and then ordered another while on the road. I do need to purchase a book light so that I can read after dark. However, I like the fact that the screen does not have back lighting like a computer screen, as it would be difficult to read in the sun... I can always find the page I am on and it is light and easy to hold... What a nice product!!!
Greatest purchase of my life!!! March 14, 2010 charlie schenck (pilot point, tx USA) Great product! I love reading books on my kindle 2. Went from reading 2-4 books a month to 2-4 books a week. The amount of great classics available for free is awesome! I love the free interent! I love shopping at 3 in the morning when I cant sleep! I love having all the best sellers at my fingertips for cheaper then I can get at the book store or even walmart!
In short...I love my kindle!!!

Book selection is lacking March 14, 2010 Chris (Atlanta, Ga USA) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
While the Kindle itself works adequately and the concept of carrying so many books everywhere is appealing, the reality is frustrating. I am continually finding that books I would love to have on Kindle are not available. For example, I wanted to read Tony Hillerman's autobiography but it isn't available on Kindle. There are many books available but it seems if you get far away from the Bestsellers list you are out of luck.
