For sure, the Kindle elElectronic Book Reader is lifestyle these days. It's actually considered cool to be seen reading say on the subway or in a restaurant. With it, you'll never run out of things to read. And if you like to read multiple books in parallel, this is your lucky day. They're making their way into schools soon where dead-tree books have been eternally intrinsic. From any angle, the Kindle reader appears set to stay.
With the launch of Amazon Kindle 2 has integrated the entire business of e-reading. The eBook reader is not only filled with smart features, it's also connected and mobile just like the cellular phone. It is essentially a cellular eBook reader in that it has wireless coverage anywhere in the US for Amazon bookstores plus browsing text-centric websites like Wikipedia, Google and others.
The original Amazon Kindle wasn't much of a looker but you can't say that about the new Kindle. Looking stylish and a lot more approachable than its predecessor, the Kindle 2 is also an ergonomics masterpiece. Whether it's by chance or choice, the appearance is very Apple-like (iPod) and that's a plus with many folks. But looks aside, it's a functional gem in its own right.
Although the Kindle eBook Reader is likely to attract quite a bit of attention, that's not the intention of the design upon the reader. The objective was in fact to get the reader 'lost in your reading, not the technology'. It has so gallantly replicated the feature of a good physical book to disappear while you're reading it but can't put it down except it's now can't put the Kindle down.
The trademark feature of the Kindle reader has to be its Whispernet wireless service. So far, it's the only eBook reader equipped with this facility. Readers are in constant touch with the bookstore and subscriptions plus synchronized with other devices associated with their Kindles through its Whispersync network and all this for free by Amazon. The service is powered by 3G technology so it doesn't have to be within any hotspot zone to be functional.
Most Kindle review sites will not fail to mention 2 things: the price and the size of the library. At a cost of the better part of $ 400, it could be steep for some but if you're into reading, the 275,000 books available will beckon at a discounted price. Whether it's worth the money or not is an individual thing and if Amazon has its way, any book that's ever printed will have an e-version for the Kindle in future. That's a lot of books!
