All your base are belong to us.

Why would you buy a Kendel for games? Until they port Zero Wing, it's a non-gaming platform in my opinion.

I am curious what makes the spelling offensive, rather than just incorrect?

I find the possibility of three different misspellings of the same word in one post being unintentional to be extremely unlikely. Note also the fact that no other words but Kindle were misspelled, and it becomes quite clear that the intention was to offend and rankle.

It's been a long time since I've heard Zero Wing being held up as a requirement for a gaming platform. Is someone set up us the bomb?

I agree. This is such an obvious troll post I don't understand why people are bothering to reply.

I'm actually more of an original X-COM person, but when you take the quality of the original post, Zero Wing was a better choice.

I don´t think, that Kendle gives our private information to the government. He´s a good boy.

Hi every body. My name is Sandy. I bought a Kendle II a year ago and am very disappointed in it. I was under the impression it was like my PC in that I could do any thing with it I wanted since I bought and paid for it. I first had a hint there was a problem when I read the information that came with the kindle. I have elected to not be tracked by Amazon and this causes a lot of problems. As a book reader it is in fact great. But it is the fact that I can't do a lot of the things that they advertises that really ticks me off. if you want on the web the only way you can get on is by registering with Amazon. there are many other things I would like to do like games. again you have to register and be tracked by Amazon.

I would recommend a different brand then Kendle if you want to be able to user your reader for anything other the just a reader and not have amazon tracking and recording what your doing and then turning the results over to the government.

Best Regards


Sandy
Sounds like you are the type that would believe in sending money to a Kenyan Prince in return for his promise to send you millions of dollars out of his locked down trust fund...

That or you read up on the Kendle company being bought out by INC Research... our device is Amazon Kindle, completely unrelated.

Luckily the Kindle comes with a distionary. Look up the meaning of the word "READER" and it may help you understand what the Kindle is designed to do. It is unfortunate you did not understand this before you purchased it.

I might add, as well, that doing a bit of research might have given you a clue to the KINDLE'S "limitations."

You should promptly de-register and return it.

Don
And looking at it would've given Sandy a clue as to how to spell it. He/she has it spelled 3 different ways. I suspect it got boring under the bridge....

Oops, you're right - and one of them was even correct. Even a blind squirrel...

And on another note, does privicy have something to do with privacy in the privy?
