It has so many interesting features, but of course the most important is that we can read on it.

I do love my e-reader's, but there are some things you need to hold in your hand. I have old books that are my most cherished possessions. I wouldn't want it to live in a all digital futures.

Cool topic. Love the "can't re...Hey Lady!<br /><br />Cool topic. Love the "can't read electricity" line - brilliant. ;0) <br /><br />You know I'm here to sing the praises of my Kindle fire. I'd wanted an e-reader ever since my sister let me borrow her Nook to read a hot new title that released. Then she gave me the fire for Christmas, and I got to see all it's other features. I have music on it, Netflix, my photos, apps for Facebook and time-consuming games that rack up unproductive hours(lol) plus my beloved books. <br /><br />I recently because I downloaded my first new eagerly awaited book, and it was nice to not have to drive anywhere, face the risk of the book store being sold out or stalk my mailman. Hi, Phil. *waves* (We're on a first name basis.) Lol.<br /><br />I know a lot of comparison has been made between iPad and Kindle Fire, but I think, like you said, a e-reader isn't meant to be a pad computer, while you can read e-books on a pad the same as you could on your desktop. it's just nicer when you don't have to get out of bed. :)Shelley N Greenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682657296442245678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568045042407840394.post-5497366556766495192012-04-05T18:07:04.310-04:002012-04-05T18:07:04.310-04:00I've heard great things about the Fire!

I didn't get one of the first generation (it's kind of a motto not to buy the first generation of anything) but I did get a second-gen. I loved it. The screen decided to stop working so I got a new one. I am now on my third Kindle, (third gen) and I love it immensely. I enjoy the respite for my eyes with the non-backlit-screen, since I spend all day on a laptop with the light assaulting my retinas.<br /><br />And I confess I buy way more books with my Kindle than I would if I had to wait to go to a store. lol It's SO EASY. :) <br /><br />Waiting until I can buy one of YOURS! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568045042407840394.post-29121604575489538832012-04-05T08:31:33.811-04:002012-04-05T08:31:33.811-04:00Very informative!

Even though I cursed myself for not having a Kindle when I needed/wanted to get my hands on Mockingjay last year and couldn't, I really, really like to just hold a book. I'm sure I'll cave someday though, and if I do, I'll probably invest in an iPad. <br /><br />Nice to meet you through A-Z!Alison Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12179538085536841348noreply@blogger.com
