 Excellent! January 6, 2009

Love my new Kindle, it gives me the freedom to take my books anywhere and read anywhere. It's always in my purse because if I have to wait somewhere I pull it out and read. Easy to use, easy to read, easy to hold. Love it! Also, kudos to Kindle support team. My first Kindle, after 2 weeks, stopped connecting to the Whispernet. I ended up eventually having to send it back and get a new one (at no cost to me). The person I dealt with told me when he would get back to me on resolution of the problem and actually did without me having to do any followup or bugging. Thank you.
 Decent Hardware, Terrible Searching January 6, 2009

Pros:
Books on the fly
All books in one device
Saves paper
Downloads are fast
Accessible most anywhere
Good Battery life when wireless is off
Cons:
Terrible searching
No way to find books by series
The buttons are too large and are easily hit
Holding the book is awkward
No way to share books between readers. When books are downloaded the kindle serial number is embedded in the book file in binary form.

My Kindle January 6, 2009

I absolutely love my Kindle. I load it up with books I want to read and I'm on my way. Wherever I go, I take my Kindle and when I have a few spare minutes, I'm reading. Plus, I don't have books scattered all over my house anymore. The only way the Kindle could be improved is if it had a place on both sides for your thumbs to hold onto the device. Too often I end up turning the page when I don't mean to.

Forget the seemingly impressive "drop test" video. My Kindle was in its protective case, fell from a low counter onto a carpeted floor and was rendered completely inoperable. I had had it for a month. Amazon offered to replace it for half its price, $180.00. I just can't see spending that much more on a device that shatters like an egg. Very disappointed. BEWARE.
Incredible Reading Device/Technology January 6, 2009

My 22 year old daughter has not put the kindle down since Christmas morning! She has downloaded several books and read them throughout this christmas break. We have had it on display as family and friends have visited to view the newest addition to our techno family. My daughter only wishes she could down load the required text books for her upcoming final semester at Purdue.
