EBook readers
Yes, I understand that the Kindle is an excellent choice here in the U.S., but the thing is that this would be for my Japanese mother, who only read Japanese books, so I wanted to know if there was something there. Today I learned that … Do not worry about Japanese books. There are actually Japanese books in Amazon Kindle Store is now: And you can also purchase other Japanese books in file formats compatible with the Kindle (as a PDF file format) and read on the Kindle. I have the Kindle 2, so let me give you some of my views for you to decide. I have to say that I love. I think I read over 30 books with my Kindle, without fail so far. Kindle books are cheaper than actual books and I think I've saved over $ 100 for the books I bought on the Kindle. One of the reasons why I love my Kindle is that it has helped me greatly improve my performance and use my time. Before you have the Kindle, the waiting time as when I'm waiting for friends or waiting for bus or something like that is just wasted. Now all I have to take the Kindle 2, along with me and all my favorite books are inside. Another thing I like is the text to speech function, which means you can "read" books without even holding or looking at the Kindle. Now I like to use this function when I have dealt in some boring stuff, for example when I'm on the step machine or doing some housework. . I like reading and at first I missed a bit in the sense of reading books. But now I love to keep the Kindle, the e-ink seems to work fine, it's really like reading books. . Now I often read with the Kindle for several hours, but I do not feel tired. . And now prefer to give all the books inside the Kindle instead of my library never big enough. . And just to make bookmarks, notes, dictionary search without any additional thing, but a Kindle. There are quite a lot of free books (advice: If you're outside the U.S. All the books have added U.S. $ 2, but when you choose to download to your computer when you check out, the $ 2 to give them up, and you can copy the books to the Kindle via USB cable), and many Kindle books, magazines and newspapers are cheaper than real paper version. I remember reading these reviews about the benefits of the Kindle when I decided to buy it: Finally, if you do not know, Amazon has put a price bar on the Kindle 2, just before Christmas, and now sells $ 100 cheaper than the price I got my Kindle, and add in the international wireless access native PDF support. . So take the opportunity if desired. Hope that helps
I would buy an electronic book reader for my father. He is 75 years old and has trouble reading small print in books. Friends and relatives have said something like the Kindle or the Nook. However, it is necessary Wi-Fi? We need a reader that can download books from your PC, not WiFi. Being able to enlarge the text is a definite requirement. All you out there like me this? I love my dad. Somebody help me. Well, I have the answer. In short, I will choose iPad or Nook Color, because they are using the display backlight, as the computer screen, and it is difficult for our eyes. Thus it is not suitable for reading purposes. For other e-book readers, including B & N Nook, Sony Reader and Amazon Kindle, I'll go for the Kindle. For the Sony reader, many books (including new releases) is not easy to find in it. For the Nook is good, but is slower and less user friendly compared to the new version of Kindle. There are also quite a good comparison between the e-book readers here:
