Kindle Ebook Reader - Easy 3G Connection
The new kindle ebook reader from Amazon is a great piece of technology. It can store up to 1500 books, the books are cheaper since they are not a physical product and, again since there’s no paper - you can be environmentally friendly. It’s all good. But the really clever thing that Amazon have done is to make the download mechanism quick (less than 60 seconds per book) free and easy. There are no monthly fees to pay and the downloads are handled using Whispernet 3G technology. Unlike other ebook readers there’s no need to download to a PC and then transfer to the reading device.
