Title: Amazon Kindle Post by: bigcash2002 on November 05, 2009, 04:10:01 PM Anyone have an Amazon Kindle? If so, what is your experience with it?
It looks cool. I have read some decent reviews. However, does it have backlight issues, blurry? Is it fatiguing on the eyes......

why do you say it's a waste of money? Title: Re: Amazon Kindle Post by: Genesis on November 09, 2009, 02:54:02 AM i've seen it, it looks pretty cool. free 3G internet too! why do you say it's a waste of money? I agree it's a cool device. But like Mysteron said, it's very expensive and probably a waste of money since most of the books you want are not available for the Kindle (yet). However, does it have backlight issues, blurry? Is it fatiguing on the eyes...... The Kindle doesn't use a backlight. It has an EPD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophoretic_display) display, which is a passive screen. So it's like reading a book. You need a light. I've heard it's no more fatiguing than reading a regular book. |
