Great product with great support
OK - things don't always go as expected and my Christmas Kindle had a glitch on the screen.

I tend to read more than one book at a time so instead of dragging around two books in my purse I just have the Kindle which is very light weight and takes up about the... more info
I love my Kindle!
I have had my Kindle for over a month now, so I think I have enough experience with it to give a pretty fair review. First of all, I was so excited to see how small and light it was! I read the dimensions, but for some reason thought it would be bigger. I really like the seperate switches for the power and the wireless. It's nice to turn off the wireless when you don't need it (really saves the battery power). The battery seems to have a really long life to it. I've made it through whole books without... more info
