Ebook Reader Reviews
Ebook Reader Reviews to help you decide.
I finally figured out why some people are happy reading on their i-phone. It is because they really don’t read very much!! Either that or they just like their i-phone for the other functions it performs, which is fine, But I’m talking about serious reading here and the Kindle really has it over the I-phone!
I understand that publishers are making even more books available for the e-readers format and I have already ordered one for my husband for Christmas since he’s always wanting to borrow mine! And oh, did I mention he has an i-phone??
Anyway just wanted to say THANKS AMAZON! I LOVE MY KINDLE!!

I was really skeptical about the Kindle until my friend pulled one out of her purse and started reading with it. I was amazed at how much it was just like reading a book! After I got my own Kindle it only got better.
My main concern was the battery power part of it but then I found there was nothing to worry about. With the wireless disabled, the Kindle only uses power to turn the page!It’s just as good as reading a book only it weighs so much less. Amazon’s database is fabulous and I never have to worry about where to put a book when I’m through with it anymore.

I studied everything that I could find out there about the Sony Ebook reader and the Kindle. Here’s the differences I found:
- The Sony holds 160 Ebooks, the Kindle holds 200
- The Sony weighs 9 oz, the Kindle weighs 10 oz
- The Sony takes 4 hours to charge, the Kindle takes only 2 hours
- The Sony sells the book cover separately, the Kindle includes it.
The main difference that I noticed was that the Kindle was easier to turn the page. Sounds silly, but I really don’t want to think about turning a page when reading. I also liked the controls of the Kindle better even though I kinda liked the way the Sony looked. The Kindle also costs a little more, but I found it on sale and I’m really happy with my decision! If I wouldn’t have checked them out in person, I may have purchased the Sony just because of the name I’ve known for so long.

I don’t see what the big deal is, I bought the Sony Ebook reader because I know Sony and I love it! They both basically do the same thing and why try a brand I’m not familiar with when spending that kind of money. So what if the Kindle takes less time to charge, I sleep longer than that! Thanks Sony for another good product.

I knew right away when I went into the store and saw both the Sony and the Kindle by Amazon. The Kindle was my first choice. It’s just more comfortable for me, although I’ve always been a Sony kind of gal. I haven’t regretted my purchase for a second! I go nowhere without my Kindle now!

I’m so pleased with the information I found on this site. The Kindle is Hands Down the best Ebook Reader Out There !!! The ease of use, the ability to download a book in seconds, and now International capability. Lower price, it just keeps getting better!
