Why would I want this? I am researching Kindles for a first purchase and don't know much

If you ever tried any other brands on any other devices, you would know this is the easiest one to apply....that's what I thought at least.

It protects your screen from scratches and such. I got this for my brother and he doesn't have any complaints about it.

To protect the kindle touch screen from scratches, nicks, fingerprints, damage, etc.

This is a lot better than the regular screen protectors. If you're looking for a good screen protector for your Kindel...this is it. You can't even tell there's a protector on.

It is supposed to protect the screen from scratches. It does not fit very well.

With 2.0 you can side-load android apps like the Kindle app.. also has good, free/cheap ebook readers you can download from App World

I doubt you'd get functionality out of this on a Kindle. You might be pleasantly surprised but for tablets you'd be better off with a Bluetooth KB instead.

Sorry, I don't know. I know it's too small for my first Kindle. I suggest you look up the sizes of Kindle Touch and this lit up Kindle. I think Kindle Touch is the same size as my early one, only w/o the "keyboard." So, probably no...?

I'm still in the process of deciding and found out some helpful info. I'm planning on using our library for ebooks and our state has at least twice as many available books for the Nook compared to the Kindle. Just thought I'd mention if anyone else is in the same boat.

I don't know but I know you can download the kindle app from the app store and as long as there is enough space you should be able to.

I just downloaded the kindle app...and then downloaded stuff through that program..It was easier for me to look at the kindle store on a pc and download from there...it does take a minute to load up on the tablet.

The kindle app is available for Android that is able to load your library from amazon and allows you to purchase more books. I use it all the time to read magazines and books I have purchased from amazon.

I think I have two answers for you. When it happened to me I got a "new" Kindle. But I always thought that it was refurbished, it went down in less than two years. I was told then that the practice would be to give me a new one for one of less value, by one step.

The tablet is underpowered and has limited memory. May be good for Kindle book library, YouTube and such, but you're better off with something with a bit more power and durability. You get what you pay for, and the last thing you need is a device that fails and you've got all your notes on it. Oh, and get a device with a good mic and 32gbs of memory.

Thanks Carol D. That's exactly what I wanted to know. I've seen demo's on the Stanza and Kindle apps. Now I just need to head to an Apple store and see if I can read on the thing. Thanks!

I know it's probably too late for the person who asked this; but for anyone else with the same question...I think giving any of the Kindle e-readers (not necessarily the kindle fire 'tablets') would be a better idea...they are CHEAPER, and they'll be much more versatile. Not only can you install a Bible on them, they can hold virtually thousands of other books!! I have owned this particular item AND I've had a Kindle touch; the latter was cheaper, lasted longer and was sooooo much more versatile! (I do not have any connection or work with Amazon)

Can Sony delete books off their e-readers? I don't think they can or do. So that's one major advantage it has over Kindle, sadly. I really wanted a Kindle, but until this mess is sorted out with 1984, I'm going to stick with less controlled systems. I guess I'll have to live without whispernet, which I think sounds like a killer feature if it isn't used against me.

Dear Michelle,I think that in overall, Kindle provides better services in Europe (3G, buying online etc). Although the Nook has also these features, you are not allowed to use the online shopping services if you are not a US residence. Unfortunatelly Amazon's store does not have books in my mother language (Catalan), so I'm "forced" to purchase the best e-reader using ePub format. Of course, when I got my Nook I'll give you some feedback. Nice to discuss with you.Xavi

I did buy the least expensive Kindle, and I do not have a router. I found out I don't need a router to download my ebooks. My computer is fairly new. I also have a Dell computer, windows 7. I followed the direction that I received and found it quite easy to add the books to the Kindle. Once you purchase your book go to 'Manage my Kindle', then request to download to your computer, save in your document file. Then use your UBS port to your Kindle and go to the document file and drag your book to the document file on your Kindle. I hope this help you. You can go to google to get instructions. That helped me. I did buy the least expensive Kindle, and I do not have a router. I found out I don't need a router to download my ebooks. My computer is fairly new.

I just bought one and it does well with the basic Kindle e-reader. I clipped it on and it held secure. The neck easily adjusts to avoid glare. I wanted to try this route as opposed to getting a Paperwhite Kindle. I am a new user of e-books and wasn't sure if I would read enough in dim light to justify the additional cost of a more expensive model. I bought my light at Bed, Bath and Beyond for 9.99 and the clerk said that they sell a lot and there haven't been any returns or complaints. I am just wondering about how frequently the AAA batteries would have to be replaced. I am waiting for an answer about this aspect. I just bought one and it does well with the basic Kindle e-reader.

Hi Robert,Thanks a lot for the info, it was exactly what I was interested in finding out. I've been back and forth about whether to get a dedicated e-reader like the Kindle DX for my PDF's, but considering the price I feel like for that kind of money, I need to think multi-function. I'm trying to limit my gadgets to only a few things that I carry around at one time.
