If it has an ediitor program I haven't noticed it. My typing has been limited to annotations and search. It's slow, especially if you need to see your text as you type since the screen is slow. Personally, I'd rather have an Eee if I were going to do much typing. I really don't consider the Kindle a multi-function device. Yes, you can websurf and such on it, but that's not what it's good at. It's good at being a reader.
