Kindle Wireless Reading Device
I own a Kindle. By Kindle I mean the first one. Although I have not used a Kindle 2, I doubt it is as good for games as a Game Boy or Playstation Portable (PSP).

OK, so I rush out a buy a new Kindle 2. What do I do with my old Kindle? Does Amazon have a recycling plan for these?

I’m just a casual reader, and assumed I’d find some high rating for this new Bezo’s thing just bumped on The Daily Show. Now I see only fair ratings.
AM i gonna use it and read mostly on this from now on if I get it? Or is this just another gadject I’m gonna get bored with in a day?

It’s a major complaint that I have with Amazon. As a corporate business strategy, turning away customers just doesn’t make sense – it’s not like I’m in Nigeria.

I not only like the feel of books and paper better than metal, but I also like to highlight and add tabs so I can go back to my books and quickly find that phrase that really struck a cord with me.
Until the Kindle — no strike that — a machine will never replace the joy of reading a book for me. So?

I read a few negative reviews but maybe those people are just negative people that have a lot to complain about. My kindle has very little glare I have to seriously position it to make a glare on the screen. Jeez it’s plastic not actually paper so it’s gonna have a little glare but I had to intentionally find direct light just to see what some people were talking about. It would be nice to control the contrast of the screen but no complaints here. It’s easy on the eyes and thin. If you read a lot then you will love it. Way better than lugging a bunch of books around. By the way, there are some free kindle books you just have to find them, they are mostly classics and older titles.
Here is a petition to Amazon to create an update to give the capability to change the screen contrast and create a darker text.
