The problem is that the Kindle doesn't have page numbers, so you can't use textbooks on it... you can't find where you're supposed to be looking, or quote a page, etc.
You don't need an e-reader like the Kindle or the iPad to purchase digital textbooks for college. You can either download the books right onto a computer or have a web subscription where you can access them wherever you have access to the internet. You can check out this article for places where you can get digital textbooks: http://makecollegereality.com/succeed/ge…Can I use Kindle to purchase books required for college classes?
Yes, you can put some textbooks on Kindle, and it really saves some money.

Kindle is sure a worth buying. Wireless is a unique feature I will say and that's make really value for money. 3G wireless and global coverage, I personally travel a lot and really worthy for me. You can have any newspaper at any place and also they are cheaper. The best selling value for the Kindle is convenience for the travel, it’s pretty handy and easy to carry anywhere with you. The other important thing matters to me are speedy for downloading books and reading material. Also it allow around average size of 1500 books and reading material to store, so is a significant amount of storage space to bring with you. In one line I can say “you are carrying your book shelf with you”.

Also one of the other feature of Kindle is it’s E-INK screen technology that don’t glare in any light so no strain to eyes and you can read for hours.



Also you save a lot in compare to the actual books, the books on kindle are really cheaper so I have saved a lot till now. Also there are plenty of books on kindle to choose. Also it has so good features such as Text-To-Speech which is really useful when you get bored or doing some other activity.

Yes. Amazon has signed contract with some big textbook publishers to have textbooks published in Kindle ebook format. I've mentioned quite a lot about textbooks on the Amazon Kindle, in another answer here:

Not on Kindle to my knowledge - however, a number of the major textbook companies allow you to rent the textbook online for significantly lesser cost and access it from your laptop.
