Product Description

Introducing Kindle™ Three years ago, we set out to design and build an entirely new class of device—a convenient, portable reading device with the ability to wirelessly download books, blogs, magazines, and newspapers. The result is Amazon Kindle. We designed Kindle to provide an exceptional reading experience. Thanks to electronic paper, a revolutionary new display technology, you’ll find reading Kindle’s screen is as sharp and natural as reading ink on paper—and nothing like the strain and glare of a computer screen. Kindle is also easy on the fingertips. It never becomes hot, and is designed for ambidextrous use so both “lefties” and “righties” can read comfortably at any angle for long periods of time. We wanted Kindle to be completely mobile and simple to use for everyone, so we made it wireless. No PC and no syncing needed. Using the same 3G network as advanced cell phones, we deliver your content using our own wireless delivery system, Amazon Whispernet. Unlike WiFi, you’ll never need to locate a hotspot. There are no confusing service plans, yearly contracts, or monthly wireless bills—we take care of the hassles so you can just read. With Whispernet, you can be anywhere, think of a book, and get it in one minute. Similarly, your content automatically comes to you, wherever you are. Newspaper subscriptions are delivered wirelessly each morning. Most magazines arrive before they hit newsstands. Haven’t read the book for tomorrow night’s book club? Get it in a minute. Finished your book in the airport? Download the sequel while you board the plane. Whether you’re in the mood for something serious or hilarious, lighthearted or studious, Kindle delivers your spontaneous reading choices on demand. We’re very proud to introduce Kindle and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do. - The Amazon Kindle Team

It was great while it lasted
I loved my Kindle - I was reading a lot of stuff, it was fun to shop in the store, and i loved checking out new books and reader reviews. At first I was annoyed that I couldn't order new books on my Kindle but that was easitly resolved when I went on line and updated my Amazon.com account - for a month or so I was in heaven. I found some books I enjoyed reading - hell, I thought I had rediscovered reading again after a dry period of several years. Then, a few nights ago I took out my Kindle. To my horror the display showed black with several "lines." I could get no response. I charged it, i played with it, I coaxed it. Nothing but those horrid lines. I have only had it a short time - it is horrendously expensive. I am desperately poor and this little thing was a huge indulgence. Now, nothing. I have heard that Amazon is good a rectifying problems so I am trying, but I am out of town with nothing to read and have incurred great expense with this device. Give me one good reason that I shouldn't have just used that money to buy some fun paperbacks or whatever. God knows that it's as fun to browse a bookstore as it is to click around on line. So until I get this resolved, I would recommend that anyone hold off on a Kindle. I sure as hell wish I would have.
