The Kindle 2 has the ability to read the written text and also to turn the pages along with it. So I say it is a great learning tool and much cheaper than the audio special equipment I had bought years ago even if I had to add the cost of insurance as I think the Kindle is easily dropped and broken.
Out of US customers are able to add content to their Kindle2 through their computer as wispernet does not work out of the country.

Thanks. I didn't know that I could use a US bought Kindle in Canada--so do I just download the books by attaching the Kindle to my computer ? Can i do everything else that the Kindle 2 does, only I just need to attach it to a computer first?
