Was thinking of picking one of these things up. Are they worth it?

I got one as a gift. Best present ever. Doesn’t replace real books though

Got a 3G Kindle myself, must say I am well impressed at d mo..

I was on the tube this morning and I noticed there were Kindles everywhere! Far more than I would have noticed before Christmas.

I have both Kindle 4 and IPad 2.Both are great for what they are designed to do.Kindle’s reading experience is second to none, while iPad is great for web browsing,reading online and some apps are really cool.Both are high quality products which shouldn’t be even compared.

One of the millions who
Received one as a gift. Fantastic resource, placing a whole world of books, info and knowledge at your finger tips. However i will always love books and everything about them. Kindle compliments the traditional book rather than replaces it.

I got a Kindle this Christmas and I love it. I love to read and really like the feel of an actual book, but the e-ink is so easy to read I would definitely consider buying more in electronic form. I will never stop buying physical books but I think I will buy ebooks as the cheaper option and if I am really impressed will buy a hardcopy for my shelf. I think people who complain about the kindle aren’t avid readers anyway, it’s technology that let’s you read books, that’s its purpose. I love the fact that it doesn’t makes noises, vibrate, take photos or interrupt my reading with a window telling me someone text me.

As a great book lover I spurned this development initially but the Kindle is really fantastic and whilst I wish I could say “bring on more trees” the fact is the day of a paper book – or anything in ink – is over. God help us though if we ever lose the ability to create electricity.

I’ve had my kindle since Christmas last year. Best present I ever got. The Kindle does for books what iPods did for music.

I have several hundred books on my kindle and I’m downloading more every week. Great selection of known authors and the freebies are better than you’d expect.

gone are the days of being overcharged and heavily taxed on paperbacks. gotta move with the times. Im getting mine next week.

I million sold a week all of December and I got none lol lol but my sister got one and is very pleased with it My husband got me a ARCHOS TABLET which suits me cos I do not read much so my tablet suits me and I can fit it into my handbag too so when my sister and I are together she can read and I can browse the web lol lol Enjoy your KINDLE EVERYONE AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR

The end of the paperback book…

I downloaded the Kindle App on my Samsung Galaxy S2 and I am well impressed!

I got a kindle as a present last April and love it ! its easy to read, easy to carry around and amazon has a good choice of books available. If you like factual stuff hard copies usually have a few pictures which the Kindle can’t can’t cope with so that is a slight draw back. Overall i have bought far more eBooks than hard copies since I got it so I guess its working for its intended purpose

Kindle me bolix apple all the way never be matched

I don’t see the point of a kindle reader when u can just download the app on your smartphone or tablet

I bought a Kobo reader on ebay because it’s a more flexible reader than the Kindle, which is tied to amazon and can display a smaller number of book formats. I had a Sony Reader first, but I wore it out. Ebooks are fantastic, but they don’t replace real books completely. I still buy books with peculiar formatting (like Daneilowski’s House of Fallen Leaves), art books, or other books with lots of pictures.

ryan tubridy should have commisioned this!
