Metal Stand for Amazon Kindle 2 is a multi-part reading stand for the 2nd generation Kindle 2.0. A lot of folks leave their Kindle alone when they are charging it. With this stand, you can continue reading and charging your Kindle at the same time. The cut off section allows you to connect your earphone [...]

Amazon Kindle 2G is only a couple of weeks old but that hasn’t stopped people from going after it. Authors Guild first brought up the text-to-speech issue the very same day Jeff Bezos introduced the new device. After a few days of going back and forth, Amazon finally decided to hedge its bets and minimize [...]

Kindle 2.0 has been out for a week now, but that hasn’t stopped me from thinking about what I want to see in the next generation Kindle. Kindle 2.0 is a great e-book reader and is certainly improved upon the first Kindle. But it’s not a perfect gadget. In fact, there are a lot of [...]

Many iPhone and iPod users talk about how the applications available for the iPhone platform has allowed them to get the most out of their device. I have argued here time and time again that Amazon will need similar capabilities to push Kindle to the next level. But the lack of a software development kit [...]

A few days ago, I wrote a post about whether you should consider getting a protection plan for your Kindle 2.0 or pray to God that it doesn’t break on you. But it seems Kindle 2.0 is more fragile that we thought it was. Numerous testers have reported damaged Kindles after only hours of use. [...]

From the day Kindle 2.0 was introduced, we have heard how Amazon has grand plans for its Kindle shop. It seems the so-called “Kindle store” won’t be for Amazon Kindle only. Amazon is a book retailer, and I can understand if it targets mobile devices such as the iPhone to sell more books and reach [...]

I know. How do you even define “used” eBooks? eBooks don’t deteriorate as you use them. They don’t age. They don’t disintegrate after you have read them a million times. Your eBook is going to look new while your Kindle ages. So eBooks last longer than paperback books. But you can’t sell them. I have [...]

In the past few days, I have read all kinds of articles about how iPhone 2.0 crushes the Kindle, and how Kindle 2.0 is no better than the first Kindle. I love the iPhone. I think Apple has done a lot of good things to make the iPhone the best gadget in the world. At [...]

Last week, we had Amazon release its second generation Kindle just to have some law experts question the legality of the “Read-To-Me” feature on Kindle 2.0. Now, I do not know whether the case against Read-To-Me is strong, but could Amazon really be forced to remove the feature? Here are a few things that our [...]

Here is how Amazon Kindle 2.0 stacks up against its predecessor. Further review will be posted shortly.

Kindle is a cool gadget. I think people have realized that after it has been around for over a year. But it’s really more than a gadget. It’s a game changer. Have you ever bought a book on Amazon and felt that you could write a better book on the same topic? But what are [...]

Amazon will most likely introduce the new Kindle this coming  monday. Everyone  I have talk to has been extremely optimistic about this new device. Sure. I have heard some complaints too (like why have an internal battery). But one thing that most people are concerned about is Kindle 2.0′s price. All indications point to the [...]

One of the complaints that I get from people who either own Kindle or plan to buy one is their need to have real books in their hands as well. People tell me that they use their Kindles all the time but having the paper version of their favorite books allows them more flexibility to [...]

Amazon has a big announcement for all of us to listen to. It has announced a press conference that will most likely be about the introduction of Kindle 2G. But one has to wonder about the fate of Kindle 1.0 amid this announcement. Amazon’s policy has been clear. They are willing to drop prices when [...]

The idea of social web has been around for years. Even before MySpace came long and Facebook became what it is today, there were a few sites that were practicing the concept of social web. A couple of years ago, a lot of folks weren’t really involved with all the social sites. These days, Facebook [...]
