The moment we have all been waiting for could be finally upon us. After playing cat and mouse with the media for months, Amazon has finally given an indication that Kindle 2.0 may be released soon. Apparently, an e-mail was sent to the media discussing a program by Jeff Bezos on February 9th. While all [...]

Amazon has just updated their Kindle splash page to account for the new titles that it has added to the Kindle platform in the past few weeks. The official number of titles available for the Kindle stays on 225,000. Not a huge deal, but one has to wonder about the time we are going to [...]

I don’t know about you but I am addicted to Twitter. Everywhere I go, I am constantly reading what others are contributing to the community and try to get involved myself. When I got my Kindle, I didn’t expect to use it for tweeting, but now I can see why folks would badly want to [...]

In the past few months, we have seen companies such as Sony step their game up a notch to truly challenge Amazon Kindle’s status as the No. 1 ebook reader on the market. I have been personally lucky to play with a few of these, and I’ve got to say they all have big potential [...]

Txtr reader is the latest device that is aiming to challenge Kindle’s supremacy in the ebook market. The whole GPRS/Wi-Fi capabilities make Txtr reader more like a tablet PC than a mere eBook reader. But for what it is worth, it is dubbed as the best eBook reader on the market: We believe that the [...]

The inauguration of President Obama was truly a historic event for every American. But as I was watching the inauguration in my office with a Kindle in my hand, I thought to myself “wouldn’t it be nice to see the inauguration on my Kindle?” I know a lot of experts argue that Kindle doesn’t need [...]

Okay. Maybe it was wishful thinking on my part, but I really thought that Obama would be our first Kindle president. I get the whole point of taking your oath on Abraham Lincoln’s bible, but why not take it on a Kindle (rather a bible in Kindle format)? In my mind that would have been [...]

In the last few months, there has been a lot of discussion about the reasons Amazon has used a proprietary document format for Amazon Kindle. A lot of customers are complaining about not being able to find their favorite books in the Kindle store. Some folks want to have access to ebooks provided by their [...]

Kindle is a great gadget. I would even dare to claim that it is the most useful gadget that money can buy. But not everyone can afford to get it at $359! Now, I am have seen refurbished Kindles go for $299 or $329, but used Kindles for as low as $100? Is it all [...]

Kindle was one of the hottest gadgets in the recent holiday season. That of course meant that a lot of folks were told by Amazon that they had to wait for 11 to 13 weeks to get their hands on it. Well, according to Amazon, the Kindle will now ship in 6 to 8 weeks. [...]

A friend of mine told me about Pulse Smartpen a while ago. It was being presented at DEMO conference last year. I didn’t really think much of it at the time. I thought it was a nice idea that wouldn’t catch fire. But after having tried it for a while, I have seen enough potential [...]

I had a very interesting discussion with a colleague of mine about the difference between experiencing a real book versus reading one on Kindle. Now, he is a late adopter. He bought his Kindle before it went out of stock. But he brought up a very interesting point. He told me that he uses Kindle [...]

If you have owned your Kindle for a while, there is a good chance you have heard of Mighty Bright XtraFlex2 light. After all, it’s the official clip-on light for the Kindle. Now it would have been nice if Kindle came with a built-in light, but that’s a whole other story. But Mighty Bright is [...]

I have been guilty of being greedy when it comes to my Kindle. I want more features, more accessories, and cheaper books. But you don’t truly realize what you have until you see what others don’t have. I was always aware that Whispernet had its limitations, but I wasn’t aware that folks were actually buying [...]

No matter how perfect a device is you can’t stop dreaming for more features. I remember when iPod came out a few years ago. It was a new thing but early adopters wanted more features to be added right away. Think about how far iPod has come. You’ve got to believe that Amazon folks are [...]
