Im taking a class in school where we read alot of books. On the kindle, how do you download books and how much do the books cost? How much does the kindle itself cost?
If you have one, do they work okay or is there another device like it that would be better? I don’t have one yet but I think it would be a ton easier than having all the different books on my desk!

I own the Kindle reading device, so let me give you some of my opinions. I’ve to say I I love it! I think I’ve read over 20 books with my Kindle, no glitches so far!
The Kindle comes with free wireless internet access, and you can get to the Kindle store of Amazon directly with the device and buy or get books there. Kindle books are cheaper than the actual paper version, most of them are under $10. Amazon also provides quite a lot free or very cheap books. There is Sony Reader other than the Kindle, but books on it is more expensive and it doesn’t come with free internet access.
One of the reasons I love my Kindle is that it has helped me improve a lot on my efficiency and utilize my time. Before I have the Kindle, waiting time like when I’m waiting for friends or waiting for shuttle bus or some thing like that is simply wasted. Now I just need to bring the Kindle 2 along with me, and all my favorite books are inside it. Another thing I like the most is the text-to-speech function, which means I can “read” books without even holding or looking at the Kindle. Now I like to use this function when I’ve myself busy on some boring things, say when I’m on the step machine or doing some housework…
I like reading and at the beginning I missed a bit on the feeling of reading books. But now I love to hold the Kindle, the e-ink seems to work very well, and it is really like reading books… Now I often read with the Kindle for several hours but I don’t feel tired…
Finally, you are lucky that Amazon just announced a price slash on the Kindle 2… A good chance for you to get one.
Hope it helps
You can download books directly with the Kindle from the Amazon Kindle store. You can also get books onto your computer, and copy them to the Kindle through USB cable.
Most books cost no more than $10. I love my Kindle 2 very much. If you are thinking of buying a Kindle, I’ll say get it and you won’t regret. Since Amazon provide books for the Kindle cheaper than actual books, it has saved me quite a lot of money. Right now I’ve read over 10 books with the Kindle, and I really like the idea that I can bring and store all the books with the handy device. Besides, it uses the e-ink technology, so even I read with the device for long hours, I don’t feel tired. My only complaint is the white case, right now all the Kindles are in white color… I think it will be cool if I can have a black or deep blue color Kindle
Hope this helps.
