Love my Kindle ! I did all the research and decided on the the Kindle. The kids love the word games and I love being able to take a book to work to read at lunch without weighing down my purse.

BEST INVESTMENT EVER!!! I am an avid reader and love my Kindle. I take it everywhere including the pool/beach (I purchased a waterproof cover) Of the other e-readers I have seen or fiddled with, KINDLE IS THE BEST. Wish there were chepaer books but they are still cheaper than store bought. I bought the leather cover with the lite brite snake light which is wonderful for night reading in bed, in the car, or on a plane at night

I am so happy with my Kindle and glad I decided on getting a Kindle verses any other e book. I would recommend getting the cheapest version of the Kindle unless you feel you would not be around wireless internet access enough and therefore need to download books through your cell phone connection. I will not repeat what the above reviews have said. The only other thing I would add is that a friend told me she had a hard time getting used to holding the Kindle because it doesn't have the "book" feel. I did not have that experience at all. I love how light it is, that I can make the print bigger and more comfortable for my eyes, no pages to blow in the wind when reading outside, and I do not have to worry about my bookmark falling out or loosing my page! Kindle will always open to the last page I was on. I LOVE, LOVE my Kindle!

I received my Kindle as a gift from my son. I am an avid reader and I have been surprised at how much I love my Kindle. I thought that I was a hardcore "gotta have a REAL book in my hand" kind of girl but the Kindle won me over. I love the Wi-Fi feature! It is so easy to transfer books and manage my content. I have even discovered that my local library will allow me to check-out the kindle version of books when they are available.

A must have! At $139, it's a bargain.

I don't have this but I have the Kindle app both on my Android and my Ipad and it gets used quite a bit!

I love my kindle! My eyes get tired after looking at computers all day and I was skeptical to buy an electronic reader. After much research, I decided on the Kindle because it is not back-lit and is most like reading a paperback book on the eyes. I was hesitant at first, but once I tried it, I love it. Because it is not back lit and requires a light source just as you would a paperback book it does not strain my eyes at all. It is so light too. I could not believe when I took it out of the box and it was about as light as a paperclip! I bought a kindle cover and it is still lighter than a small paperback book. I love both my kindle and the cover.

I got this for Christmas last year, I love it! I am an avid reader, I read at least 1-2 books per week, but I am also on a tight budget. The Kindle saves me money, and also the storage space that physical books take up. I haven't yet paid full price for a Kindle book. Most of the books I download are free or bargain, and I'm amazed at the quality of the books, so many are first rate! I find most of mine through PixelofInk.com. I love how the slim size makes it easy to slip into my handbag; I always have something to read while waiting in line or for an appointment. I don't have WiFi, so I have to download my books to my Kindle via the USB cord, but that's very easy to do; it's just a couple of extra steps and doesn't take much longer than downloading from WiFi.

I bought the Amazon Kindle for my daughter last year for Christmas. She absolutely loves it ! It is compact enough to carry in her purse, but big enough to read on it easily. She loves to work puzzles on the kindle. There are so many word puzzles and games to download for free. It is an amazing little device and this model has the 3g so can connect just about anywhere to check email and ect. A few weeks ago the Kindle Fire was released, wish I would have waited and purchased that model, I bet it is awesome....but for now this one is more than adquate. I would recommend this to all my friends !

I love my Kindle and love dealing with Amazon. I also got a lighted cover and can read in bed with the lights out. Once you use this you will never want to deal with paper reading materials again.

I received this for Christmas last year, and I absolutely love it. I read through books fast, and used to have to take 4-5 paperbacks on a weeklong trip with me. My kindle saves space in both my luggage, and in my house. It is also nice to be able to get new books at any time without leaving the house. The battery life is amazing, and the screen really is glare-free. I would definitely recommend this as a gift to any bibliophile.

I LOVE my kindle. First off, REMEMBER that the regular Kindle has no backlight, so it will not be lighted. You will have to have some sort of light to read in a dark area/room/outside. Why would they do that, you ask? Simple. Because, people like me, that want to be able to read in brightly lit areas would not be able to SEE it at all because of the horrible glare. I love that I can take this to my daughter's soccer practices and still be able to sit and read. I love the ALL of the free options. There is so much available for it, it becomes overwhelming! Also, I'm a student in college, and I love being able to type up a study guide for a class and directly email it to my kindle and within 2 minutes, I have it to go! It will even read it to me, which is a great study tool. I REALLY can't say enough good things about it. Also, you can download MP3 to it, so plug your earphones in or use the built in speaker to listen to books, music, or lectures! So freaking awesome! I loved mine so much, that I actually bought one for my best friend because I couldn't bear not being able to gloat about it and felt like such a bad friend gloating about it so much! Now, we trade books back in forth and gloat together! :D

I can't say enuf good things about this product! I researched the Kindle & the Sony Touch. Because I am a want it now kinda girl, I bought the Sony locally. Had many issues. Returned it - decided to try the Kindle. OMG!!! What was I thinking buying the Sony?!? The Kindle is absolutely amazing. Within minutes, I had it charging, registered & a book downloaded. I love I can check my FB account & email . I have been told to get the "KindleCookBook" (Kindle store)- it explains all the fun things it can do. New releases are $9.99 classics are often free. The Kindle Store has a huge variety of books available. Altho I haven't tried it, you can put MP3 songs on it & has the option for text to speech books. A co-worker bought it for her daughter for christmas. She took it to Aruba. Was able to read it on the beach without any glare, able to download additional books & easy to carry on the plane. I definately recommend the Kindle to anyone looking for an EReader!!!!

Got my Kindle over a year ago, and love it. Travels so well, battery lasts a long time (if you keep it off wi-fi when you don't need it. Would definitely highly recommend it. HOWEVER, before you buy the basic one, check out the new one that is more like a tablet. I have an iPad already, but for a new purchaser without an iPad or other tablet -- I say go get one!

I love my Kindle with 3G WIFI It is a wonderful product! I have soooo many books that I have been able to read via Amazon for free in a variety of genres and the costs for e-books are reasonable as well! There is something for every price range! :) I also enjoy that when my internet service through my apartment building isn't working; I can go on my Kindle through the experimental portion and access my email and Facebook. I have really been pleased with this wonderful gift I was given last Christmas! :) I highly recommend to give as a gift or to purchase for yourself! :)
