Fantastic device - pick your Kindle!

New Kindle Wi-Fi, 6"

    Having been a little overwhelmed by the choice of all the new Kindle, and which one to get, I ordered the new Kindle at first base $ 79 a trip. So far, I like what I see. I have just kindle3 it is the only thing that can be compared,  I think the kindle comparison with the other tablet is not appropriate, this device has to do with the content and delivery.


1. Form Factor - Compared to the Kindle3, Kindle seems more compact, lighter and easier to hold. My hands are wrapped better than Kindle3. Reading books for a couple of hours at a time will be easier on New Kindle Wi-Fi compared to Kindle3. And the light of the camera used, compared to all previous Kindle and other pills.

2. Display - I personally like the fact that there are no buttons on the new Kindle Wi-Fi and the keys are in place on the screen when you need it. It offers a wider reading experience. However, navigating through the on-screen keyboard with 5-way can be taxing, if you need to do much research, and may miss the physical keyboard altogether. I am researching on the same Kindle books are on my laptop, so it's a non-issue.

3. Price! - New Kindle Wi-Fi At $79, you can not go wrong. In comparison with the purchase of paperback or hardcover, will recover the cost of this in a few months, since most of the contents Kindle has sold more affordable printed editions (and get instant and can be accessed from anywhere). Not to mention all the free Kindle downloads available in the catalog.

4. Display - almost the same e-ink screen Kindle3. No reflection glare. You can sit in the sun and read a book. Back to home seem much faster in relation to Kindle3. Screen size Kindle3, the new Kindle, and feel exactly the same size.

5. Wi-Fi - this may be a professional or a scam (not 3G), according to a user's personal preferences. If you travel often and want to be able to download content anywhere without worrying about getting wireless internet access, it is better to stick with the Kindle3 or wait for the Kindle Touch/Fire. For me, 3G is not a big problem.

6. Text to speech and audio books - These two features of new Kindle Wi-Fi is missing. I personally have never used these features in my Kindle3. If you listen to audio books or music or TTS in their new Kindle might be the best options Kindle3/Touch/Fire.

7. Storage - New Kindle Wi-Fi can store 2 GB, which they claim is about 1400 pounds. For me it is a huge storage capacity and it will take years before I was near capacity. Again, if you download the books from time to time have a moderate content downloaded to the Kindle device, 2 GB is sufficient. Of course, thinking about the future and see what is expected to download over the next 2 years (I'm assuming that the device will be obsolete and replaced at the time).

8. Battery life - too early to tell, but the Kindle battery life tends to be great. The specifications state that the battery of this device is 1 month, 2 months compared to touch or Kindle3. 1 month of abundance (Android phones to be recharged every hour). At least I know that if I go on a long flight, this device should not be charged if you charge in advance.

9. Power adapter - the Kindle does not come with an AC adapter, a USB cable for recharging. You can buy separately for about $8-10, or use the adapter's USB power. Each adapter works with USB charging cable (earlier versions of Kindle, Apple's portable devices, HTC and most phones are equipped with a standard USB power to work in this unit). There are also a lot of adapters $2-3 available here if you are looking for USB charger.

Bottom line - the choice of the basic Kindle, Kindle3 keyboard, the touch, and the fire is really a personal preference. The device is intended for users of Kindle minimalist like me, say that the bed of 2-3 pounds a month, they want a camera easy to hold and does not need fancy bells and whistles of the device. I think it depends on what you use for your Kindle. If only the end result is the ideal device.

In my humble opinion, the choices:

(1) If you have a Kindle DX or an old version of Kindle, or if you do not have a Kindle book reader and a media is definitely one to get - the reference model that is affordable and is a pure e-reader.

(2) if you have the Kindle 3 and not really need an upgrade, you should stay with the Kindle3 is a better team in terms of functionality. If you do not need to be updated, the feel is probably a better choice because of all the extra features of a small additional cost.

(3) If you are looking for a full load of experience to access the contents of the Amazon to all applications, streaming audio and video, and play the Ninja "oddly therapeutic" Fruit, wait for the fire!
