Not as thick as pictures show it and still feels great. Resembling a calculator from the 1970 kindle brings back memories. It is much lighter than a book and extremelly comfortable to hold. The large, gray panel on the back covering the battery and SD-card memory slot is rubberized for better grip and engraved with letters and symbols from different alphabet throughout the ages, a subtle reference to the tablets that held the first written words.Although most users of the Kindle will use it as an ebook and nothing else, the device is so full of possibilities that you’d be a fool not to take advantage of them.Kindle can be used for GPS, wireless connectivity, mp3 player, and so much more.
In addition to being a book reader, the Kindle has some experimental features. One is a limited Web browser customized for the device with some preselected bookmarks including Amazon.com (in case you want to buy a digital camera instead of a book, which you can do just fine from the main Kindle shopping page), Wikipedia, Google, BBC News, Yahoo Finance, Weather Underground, and the Yellow Pages.
To sum up Kindle has a lot of potencial and can be a valuable gadget.It has so many uses that its literally the swiss-knife of Hi-tech trends.The only drawback is its average price which could drive away buyers having money problems.
