Find the best Deal for Amazon Kindle and why Kindle is the best portable reading device!

The Amazon Kindle experience is different to any other portable reading device today. Let’s explore more closely. The Amazon Kindle supports all PDF formats to ensure all popular book formats can be viewed on the Kindle with its stunning sharp resolution.  The Kindle uses a proprietary electronic ink technology which makes viewing on the Kindle look like you were reading from a real book or newspaper and is very easy on the eye.

Comparing the Kindle and Sony Reader in the UK

Ok, I will assume you’re looking for the best eBook reader for use in the UK if you’ve read this far. One of the top factors in my decision to buy the Kindle is the vast amount of book titles and publications available in the Kindle store when compared to other download stores for use with other eBook reader devices.

In particular, I looked at both the Amazon Kindle and Sony reader in detail before I purchased my Kindle. The Sony reader uses the Waterstones online bookstore for it’s downloads in the UK. Now while the most popular book titles are available, the quantity of electronic book titles available is very poor when compared to the Kindle store.

Text to Speech functionality on the Amazon Kindle

If you have read about the new Amazon Kindle DX you will have noticed the new “text to speech” function which the Amazon Kindle boasts. This is surely another key factor which puts the Kindle over its competition. So what is this “text to speech” thing?

Well the Kindle reading device supports PDF and other eBook formats so you can read all your favorite books to your hearts content. However, should you get tired of reading or say you need to take a drive, this new function reads the book to you much like an audiobook on the iPod. This new feature is excellent to pass time when driving, relaxing or going to sleep.

Can I use the Amazon Kindle for uses other than reading?

The simple answer is yes. The Kindle is a fantastic companion while away from the office. The Kindle has email functionality letting you stay connected with people while you’re on the go. The Kindle also lets you convert your emailed office documents into Kindle format allowing you to view your office documents directly on your Amazon Kindle.

The Kindle is a great companion for all those crossword lovers boasting a fabulous dictionary support. The Kindle can tell you the meaning of a word providing you with multiple related words and definitions. Master your vocabulary and crossword skill with the Amazon Kindle.

Amazon Kindle: The Wireless Device using Whispernet technology available in the UK

Amazon Kindle’s new wireless feature allows you to download books, read email and access the web by wireless using its Whispernet technology. Wireless access is free using Amazon’s proprietary technology.

This new exciting feature allows you to access news, weather, Wikipedia and browse web sites to your heart’s content. The web browser is significantly faster than its previous model providing an enjoyable web experience while you’re on the move.

Final Thoughts and Conclusions

I hope you found the above review helpful and I have summarised the top features below which make the Amazon Kindle stand out from the other devices in the market.

-          Stores hundreds of books and can download from 90,000 books in the Kindle store

-          Downloads books wirelessly from the Kindle store without access to your home computer or having to be near a wifi spot

-          With the Kindle’s new text to speech function it can read the book to you. This is much like how audiobooks work on the iPod or iPhone

-          The Kindle is capable or viewing much more than books – blogs, newspapers, magazines, email, websites, etc.

-          Fabulous dictionary support to help with those frustrating crosswords

-          Email support on the Kindle

-          Converts popular office document formats to a format compatible with the Kindle allowing you to read on the Amazon Kindle wherever you are

-          Auto rotation allowing your book to change as you change when you rotate the Kindle. This works just like it does on the iTouch and iPhone.

-          Battery life is very impressive lasting a few days before your next charge even if you leave  the wireless on for emails. You can even read while the Kindle charges.

The Kindle is my favourite portable device. I love reading and I love the Kindle which combines  reading and online access allowing you to download more books without having to be beside your home computer or laptop. The Kindle experience feels just like you are reading a book or newspaper.

Amazon have certainly made excellent improvements on the DX model. With its new sharper resolution, wireless access via Whispernet and a vast unrivalled Kindle store for book content. You will love the new Kindle. Enjoy your books the Kindle way.
