Lightbulb Finally getting an ereader :)

Hello all. I've wanted an ereader for quite a while now and I'm about to jump the gun. I'm planning to get a Kindle 3 later this week Even without the device in my hands I'm already excited and have been shopping the Amazon ebook sale.

Happy reading to all

Hello and welcome to MR. And congrats on finally taking the plunge. I'm sure you'll enjoy that Kindle.

There are several different Kindle 3's and you will need to decide which one is the best for you:

Kindle Special Offers - costs less but has adds on it
Kindle Wifi - Same as above without adds and costs more
Kindle 3G - Same as the wifi but with faster wifi capabilities
Kindle DX - entirely different its a large screen reader.

Costs start at apprxoimatly $114 + tax for the one at the top so you will need to decide which flavor of the Kindle is right for you. Mine is the top one, I don't mind the adds so much.

You also can start enjoying the books from Amazon now without wating to get the reader in your hands. Do you have a smart phone? That will get you the access to the Amazon library that you want although it has a really small screen.

Hi marimorimo and welcome to MobileRead. You may think you are about to buy an eBook Reader but the truth is what you are about to buy is a dangerous drug! Yes, the damn things are addictive!

And, it's probably too late to resist so give in and enjoy your new toy.

Cassidm is so right. It will constantly call to you - "READ ME" - and - "I need a one click for a new novel." So have fun! We're all addicted and loving it.
