Intro: Amazon launched the Kindle in the United
States in November 2007. Demand for the Kindle has been high with long
waiting lists. We finally got our hands on one and review the Kindle in
this podcast.
Show Questions: Can you give us some basic specs on the Kindle?
What about external storage, battery life and ports or connectors?
How do you navigate?
Does the ruler do anything else?
What's Whispernet? How do you get content on the Kindle?
Can you get content from other sources? What file formats does the kindle support? Are there other ways to read pdf's? Can you view pictures? What else can you do? I'm always reading things and making notes to include in blogs or other documents - is there a way to do this? How does the dictionary work? What are some of the experimental extras - does it allow web browsing?? I've heard about a question ask and answer feature - can you describe that? Can you play music on it? Any other observations? |
