Kindle

Kindle is the wireless reading device that Amazon is bringing on the US market.

As a fanatic reader (and with more time to read during my visiting scholarship at MIT) I recently bought the Kindle. The Kindle is wireless connected to the Amazon Kindle web site and in the US you can download books, newspapers, magazines, and blogs. For wireless downloading (only in the US yet) you need to have an US address and an US credit or debit card. The first experiences are very positive: great reading experience, easy to use, fast downloading, extra functionalities like the text-to-speech feature, the use of the dictionary, and the 9.99 dollar per book download. Let's see how I am going to use it the coming weeks. Keep you informed.
