That said, I'm all for anything that allows users to customize their reading experience to best suit them. You should contact kindle-feedback@amazon.com (and/or kindledx-feedback@amazon.com) with a suggestion to add a two-colum display option - it could be a new justification selection.

To the kindle design team.
I am interested in the kindle 3.
Will it be possible to display 2 pages like in an ordinary spread out book
on the kindle 3?
Has anyone every done this on the previous kindles?
Is there any software which could enable this?
Since small fonts are available it should be quite easy to do this via
software.
Especially in landscape mode it could behave like a real book.
Your software designers could easily write this simple software as the
requirements seem small.
It would make the kindle even more popular and natural to use if you could
display both pages of a book either in portrait or landscape mode. Remember
the small size of fonts in paperbacks and in cell phones.
Regards,

If more people asked for the feature as above they might write it in the sogtware.
Reading 2 pages is more natural and seeing todays screen shots in landscape mode of people who got their kindle 3 early ,2 pages would in fact be just like reading a paperback so I urge everyone to petition for this feature as I have above.
