🔺Advantages of a Kindle
- It's convenient. You can carry five thousand books in your purse. It's great for traveling,and it's nice to . have a book (or a thousand books) handy when you're waiting in line or stuck in traffic.
- You can get an amazing number of books for free from the Kindle Store . If something isn't available in Kindle format, you can send it as an attachment to a special e-mail address, and it will deliver it automatically to your Kindle.
- Recent books are a little cheaper in Kindle format than print.
- You can also surf the web (clumsy but it works), listen to mp3 recordings (music or podcasts), and play games.
- The dictionary feature is especially nice. Put your cursor in front of a word, and you can see the definition of that word immediately. A great way to increase your vocabulary.
- You can increase the font size.
- You can search for a certain word in a book.
- You save a lot of trees.
🔺Disadvantages of a Kindle
- It's not a book. For the most part this isn't a problem, but you can't "thumb through" a Kindle, and in some ways it's harder to do research. Although the search feature can make it easier in some ways.
- You can't read it in the tub.
- Photos are only black and white at this point.
- It's harder to lend books to people. They are developing a feature where you can give a copy to someone for two weeks, while that book is absent from your Kindle.
