Kindle 3G Review
In a day and age of non-stop go-go-go, I find myself without patience at the end of the day to actually sit still and read a book. Would the Kindle change my approach to reading? Would I actually use it to get through a book? I was lucky enough to get a Kindle on loan, so I thought ‘why not see’? Before I start my review, I would like to note that the last time I actually sat down and read -anything- that wasn’t an article/story online, was the second book in a series about a very well known wizard, and even that was because I was bedridden with a severe case of food poisoning so had nothing else to do, as I wasn’t allowed out of bed!

How to download free or other e-books to your Kindle
One of great strengths of the Amazon Kindle is its superb integration with the Amazon Kindle Store. With this feature, you can simple select your desired e-book on the Amazon website and it will more or less automagically appear on your Kindle device within a minute or so.

Well firstly, good news for those of us in the USA; Amazon has a section containing ‘free’ e-books. For the rest of the world Amazon charge a small amount to cover electronic delivery cost (Typically $0.99c).
