E-Reader for reading books transferred from P.C.

sweetan · 04-20-2012, 01:41 AM

Hello Everyone.

I want to buy my first e-reader and i have never used one before. Whatever i have managed to gather from net i think kindle touch is best e-reader around but before buying i want some advice.So please help me with some apprehensions.

I am from India and as far as i know kindle touch is not available here. I want to know

1. Will it be possible to read books downloaded from net and then trasferred to kindle.

2. Is it too problematic to read pdf on e-readers.

3. Will text to speech feature work if kindle is not connected via wi-fi or 3g and does this feature support languages other than english.
Thanks.

What do you mean by "downloaded from net"? Where do you normally buy your ebooks from?

I'm a little puzzled why you think the Kindle Touch is not available in India; according to "amazon.com" it is.

TTS does not require Internet access; it only works in English.

No 6" eInk device is good for PDF.

Thanks HarryT for your reply. Actually i wanted to say i want to use P.C. for downloading books not kindle. And when i google kindle in india local sites would say it is not launched here yet. Never shopped online that is why never thought of checking amazon feel embarrassed now. Thanks again for your time.
