We will not speak of the 3 hours I tried to get a Kindle to work and their site to download books. I used words I haven't used since I was in the Navy. Or as my wife at the time use to say when I was working on the computer and turned beet red "Oh you are going to say those words again... I'm leaving the house."
So I tried to download to the Kindle PC program in case it was the Kindle. It downloaded and wiped out the book as soon as it was downloaded. That was another two hours. So I tried the Cloud. Not bad. The shortest time to turn a page was 30 seconds. The longest was when it just spun helplessly until I restarted it. Considering I am a speed reader, it was Hades on earth.
Amazon Quote of the Day? "We aren't sure why it is doing this. Try..." Um I already did twits if you had read my email at all.
The epub was downloaded, up reading and Calibre was flipping pages in seconds with the center mouse wheel with no break in my reading.
I'm sorry but after that and the "We don't know why it doesn't work" from Amazon, they couldn't give me a Kindle. I would sell it and buy a Nook.
