Amazon Kindle Touch: the perfect eReader

Amazon Kindle Touch eReader is the proof those who thought that reading books was out of trends were wrong! Books have always been a way to carry knowledge across time and that has been enough reason for the book to reinvent itself every time readers have required it. Starting with the graved stone and continuing with the Egyptian papyrus, we have reached the books shaped as we know them, but the information and speed era asked for a new type of books: the eBooks!

Just a word from the consumers and a lot of work from the producers and the book in electronic format was available on the market. Such a book had to read not only on the computer, but also on much smaller devices, that would allow the user to mind his book everywhere and such an eReader is the Amazon Kindle Touch eReader, a 6-inch lightweight eBook reader.

The Amazon Kindle eReader has a storage capacity of three thousand books and that is more than what most of us will read in a life time, not to mention that we are talking about both eBooks and audio books (thanks to the mp3 support)! Plus the 6 inch E Ink display and the multi-touch, that make reading just a piece of cake, while consuming less power than typical LCD displays. And it’s highly readable outdoors.

This particular ebook reader can connect to the internet via Wi-Fi and is capable of downloading a book within only sixty seconds. If you are a library fan, you should not be worried, because you can still borrow Kindle books from the public library. The X-Ray feature allows you to emphasis letters, faces or just certain words you liked.

If we ought to approach the performance criteria, I would say that this is one of the best ereaders. The storage capacity  is amazing, the multitude of functions included are both useful and fun at the same time and nevertheless, it is very easy to use, which is probably the most important thing! Not to mention that it is lighter and smaller than a regular book! The battery will last you two months (yeas, that’s months). You can also get the 3G enabled version, which features any time connectivity, as Amazon has signed deals with pretty much any wireless provider out there, and the price of connectivity is included in each eBook you’re downloading. Talk about making things easier…

The price for the Amazon Kindle Touch eReader listed on Amazon is around 100 US dollars (or $139 for the ad-Free version and $149/$189 for the Kindle Touch 3G version, that doesn’t require a wireless carrier contract!). What you get for this amount of money is, in my opinion, the best ereader that the market has to offer at the moment. And we should mention that there is a rather wide range of ebook readers! Therefore, I would definitely call it a good deal!
