190mm x 123mm x 8.5mm Weight 247 grams

the DX is about half as big again.

I saw a kindle today, they're big, I'd rather a book I think.

mine is 19cm long, 12cm wide and 0.5 cm thick

I weighed it against the book i was reading and the kindle was lighter

[azureline**]

I am sure I saw the kindle advertised as lighter than a book and thinner than a magazine.

The advantage is, it holds more than one book.

what do you think of this buy

seems like a big bargain

My son got one for Christmas..

He has spent the last week laying in bed reading... some nights he stays up until 2am...

He has already read 6 books since Christmas!!!

His brother has downloaded over 100 books for him....

I don't know if I am happy or sad!!

I saw that the other day. It looks good but the colour turned me off a bit.

Hmm...cat....will this become an obsession? maybe you need to make some rules about it?

[catsnknots]

Yes.. it is another obsession.. but much cheaper than having to buy the books.. as it is holidays I was looking to buy 2 books a week and that was getting costly..

His dad got it for him thank goodness.

The one good thing is that I can tell him to do certain jobs or I will confiscate both the pc and the kindle...

we have just bought a metal detector and will be going out every night to scourer the beaches.. that will get him out of the house.

Amy, I don't know, but had a quick look at their feedback, doubt I would buy off them.

What I am going to do is save and get a proper Kindle cover, and possibly accessories, when I can.

Catmad, is your son getting some of the free books?

Don't know how old he is, but in case you don't know, there is a Pixelofink Young Edition you can subscribe to, as well as Pixelofink.
