Cindy,
As a librarian I’m sure you have a great command of the English language but you also have an interest in new words you may come across in a book. Do you stop and go look it up? With the Kindle all you have to do is touch word and the definition pops up. If you want to note a phrase or section you can select it and then select from several options to keep it for later recall. Plus other features that are available in addition to the ones listed above in the review. Personally I like the touch feature available on the Kindle and to turn the page you just tap the side of the page so you can still do it with one hand.

In reply to Cindy McPeak. I agree and one thing I have noticed is that no matter how awake and alert I am, it doesn't take long to stare at the screen before my eyes get sleepy regardless of how engaged I am in the content .

Cindy,

I can only offer my own experience – Kindle reading is a better experience for me for many reasons. So much so that I don’t think I’ve bought or lifted a paper book in the last 3 years (at least).

So, after everything I read on this blog, all I saw was it’s an electronic book that as long as it’s charged you can read all you want. With a hard cover or paper back book that doesn’t need charging (not electronic) I can still read all I want. So what exactly is the big deal. I also understand ebooks are cheaper, ok whatever, Kindle still doesn’t impress me. Does anyone have any really good reason what makes Kindle “special, a must have” before commenting please bare this in mind, I’m 52 and was a librarian for several years.

I don’t have an iPad, but do own an Android tablet and a Kindle.

Kindle is easier on the eyes when it comes to reading – probably because there’s no back-lighting involved in its screen technology.

I need to know whichDevice is easier to read on for the eyes. I have macular and later it will be more difficult to read. I now read on an iPad. Would a kindle be better? Which Kindle?

Really good analysis. I’m a huge Apple fan, but I must admit you just showed me good arguments in favor of Kindle..
