Mount Garmin Bike band to you
I have had my Kindle for approximatley 1 month and find I read more now than I did without the Kindle.
I think the Kindle is an exceptional product, but it has a restriction that I just do not like. The inability to share books with friends or family members is jst not right. If I had paid more attention to this area of the product, I probably would have bought a Nook. The reluctance on Amazon’s part to share books is an effort to raise their revenue in electronic book sales. I think, Barnes & Noble, has it right. I bought the book why should Amazon restict who I lend it to. If I had purchased a printed book, I could lend it to whom ever I want and for as long as I want. The purchase price of an ebook versus a printed book is not that significantly different for the buyer (depends on where you buy the book). The cost of printed versus electronic is significant and will provide the seller with a nice profit.
Enough complaining. The battery life is very good, especially if you turn it off between reading sessions. The system turns on and is availble for use quicker than the Nook. The font sizes are acceptable for just about anyone. The screen changes from page to page are just as fast as turning a page on a printed book. The 3G functionality works better than my phones 3G in the same spot. I do not have WIFI, as it is 2nd Generation, and do not miss it. I use my laptop for that purpose.
The search for new books on the site works relatively well. You do not always get all of the books you expected, even though they are on the site and can you find them searching for the title rather than the author.
The need to select the orientation of the screen is a little hokey, especially when so many other devices have that functionality built into the programming.
