Kindle Reader
As the old saying goes ‘necessity is the Mother of invention’. With the advent of the E-book and other electronic media came the need for a means of reading it. A couple of the leading forerunners in this field were the Sony Reader and the Apple iPhone. That is until the Amazon Kindle hit the scene.
Since early Winter 2007 the Amazon Kindle has been a highly sought after item. On its initial arrival it began ‘selling like hotcakes’. That momentum hasn’t slowed either, if anything it may have picked up speed. There have been many times consumers would go to purchase one only to find that all had been sold already.
That is until early this spring, since then Amazon has been able to meet the high demand for this device. The Kindle puts a virtual library in your pocket and at your fingertips. It goes without saying that everybody is going to want one.
As I performed research regarding the Amazon Kindle, I looked at some images to get better acquainted with my subject matter. The nomenclature of this device puts me in mind of something you would see on Star Trek. With its compact size and six inch diagonal display you can read books, which are purchased via download through Amazon Cloud. You can read some of the most highly read newspapers via subscription downloads. You can make your own ‘Captain’s Log’ in the form of a blog you keep on the device. The LCD display makes the information very easy to see. You can change pages either by using the LCD scroll at the right hand side of the device or by turning a page-changing dial located on the right and left hand side of the device. The USB port makes interfacing with other devices a breeze. This port allows you to save data to an external memory storage area, connect with your computer, and print out hard copies. The possibilities are virtually endless with the Amazon Kindle.
The Amazon Whispernet network allows you to access Amazon E-books with ease. You can download and store as few or as many as you wish. It has a maximum capacity of two hundred non-illustrated E-books.
The Amazon Kindle is a device that has been a welcome arrival to the world of those with visual impairments. Unlike the Sony Reader, which offers nothing to those with visual impairments, the Amazon Kindle has got nothing but positive reports from the visually impaired community. With reviews such as this, I think it safe to say that the Sony Reader is old school and Amazon Kindle is new age.
