I am a big supporter of the concept of e-book to have read electronic books, as the Apple Newton (and by different palms, PRS505S Sony Reader and Kindle 1). The dream has always been a portable electronic device that could automate a ton of reading material, and facilitate the quick and easy download subscription included, and as mobile as easy on the eyes, and as intuitive as a book. The Kindle 1 was the first truly practical device closer to that dream.

The combination of the reflection of E-Ink screen effortlessly connect Whispernet wireless cellular connection for Amazon (and the Internet – without a computer, never), and the tremendous ability to Amazon rope a critical mass of content of books and journals, the promise of real e-reader for the first time. But the Kindle 1 had a few rough edges, which was easily in the way of reading. Things like the buttons that it was easy to accidentally turn over the pages of a separate cursor on the page that was not select rows and was sometimes difficult to see the menus, sometimes ineffective, which almost forced to withdraw from use, and sometimes opened the door from the battery. 2 With the Kindle, Amazon has approached all these questions and much more. Everyone looks superficially subtle differences, but collectively they combine to enhance the feeling Kindle 2 is fairly polished and effortless to operate. It reminds us of yet another device on the track and leave the reader so that only with text, like a book.

The first, which takes about 2 Kindle elegance and finesse, as it is. The Kindle 2 is thin. She disappears in a positive way in your briefcase. The second thing is the buttons. They are small but well-established and critical pivot points within the screen. This means that if you manipulate the Kindle 2, around the edges, the pages not change, even if you catch it from the keys. But changing pages is easy if you – the keys are directly between the thumb and the slightest pressure on their faces enough to activate. The problem of the case was treated with a contribution-in-slot locking arrangement is reminiscent of the organizers of last Palm. The fact that one should buy this case, it is disappointing, but the advantage is that you to can choose your Kindle. The problem with the door opening of the battery is solved, but Amazon went further, eliminating it altogether, and rolled back door with stainless steel slim. It is the touch and elegant, but the removal of the door: the removal from the slot for SD memory card that the Kindle switch 1, and the ability of the batteries. This is probably the most controversial aspect of the Kindle 2nd Frankly, I never used the card slot or changing the battery on my Kindle 1, but I wish they were there and I miss them on the Kindle 2, although I must confess I do not really need.

In practice, it is not forced to limit in a 2-GB (1.4 GB available), especially if you are willing to Amazon to archive items that you have read and confidence to live. The screen is progressively improved. 16 level is much better than 4 They say it is faster, but only a little. I note that the Snappiness the Kindle 2 performance, but it is certainly not a huge difference. The quality of the text of e-ink display is essentially unchanged from the 1st Kindle 40% know very well, but the screen is Kindle 2 looks like on Kindle 1st If the improvement of e-ink display really shines is updated dynamically – that is fast enough to live a slider in the text box. This makes the scroll wheel and cursor next to the Kindle 1st Kindle 2 is in that which is replaced by a joystick 5-bis (4-plus Click below to order). The joystick is much more than you can actually choose a word for a definition. It allows you to quickly navigate magazines – to the next section, with just a right click or left or up the track, or a list of products with a sudden upward or downward. Losing cursor Kindle 2 gives a clear – but it is vastly improved navigation, which brings the greatest benefit. This ease of navigation is one of the most fascinating features of the new Kindle 2 for me. What is the function of text to speech, it is likely unaffordable some – but not me. Stephen Hawking I love, but do not want the voice that I read a book. Tell me later, and maybe I can change my mind.

Overall, feels like Amazon Kindle 2 is always in the heart of the e-reader. The annoying things about Kindle 1 are gone, but almost all the strengths, or are stressed. The problem is that the differences are subtle. At first glance seem Kindle 2 is improving very slowly, almost trivial. It is clear that the future will be better color and contrast of 40% – but these improvements are short mid-ink, not Amazon. I have other items on my wish list for the future – as will be in a position to a larger screen for better display times more books. I want to create the Content Manager to allow me to folders so that I can organize my growing collection of titles. I wanted Kindle to read PDF files natively (you do not have an e-mail in PDF format for your conversion with Kindle 2). These things will come, I am sure in time. Meanwhile, the Kindle 2 is currently the best e-reader on the planet. In terms of ease of use in-the-hand blows Kindle 1 hours.

Some of my colleagues at work, and I have spoken recently about the impact of the Kindle on the future of books. Elimination Kindle page numbers, loses fitness to shape the forces of all the books in a common format and standardize the font. It is clear that lost something from a printed book. But what is gained is undeniable, and as imminent as the weather. The ability to carry entire libraries (like the iPod) in the music, and the ability to the newspaper, a magazine or a book will automatically receive – almost immediately – in a savings account – is literally a dream become a reality. There is little doubt that Kindle has completely changed the pattern of distribution of books. The great divide seems to be Amazon. AZW Kindle format, and. PDF, Adobe Acrobat, which is now almost everywhere. PDF universality about open source (it is not), there is no protection against copying or copyright features to be installed. While.

This is because traditional publishers do not want to sign a form that does not protect it, too. List format. AZW and then realized that the Kindle has an impressive selection of content. In the modern economy of increasing returns early criticism of the technique leads usually become dominant trends. Kindle format.
