Rating : - i love my kiindle
i love my kindle, the choice of books i can get is fantastic . the ease of getting these books is also a marvel for a senior citizen. i grew up reading books from my library and listening to the radio. now i get my books flying through the air, what a wonder. I do have one little complaint and that is the 5 way button is a bit hard to manage for me. but all in all its a great machine and so far 3 of my friends have also bought a kindle on my recommendation
