I love my Kindle very much. If you are thinking of buying a Kindle, I'll say get it and you won't regret. Since Amazon provide books for the Kindle cheaper than actual books, it has saved me quite a lot of money. Right now I've read over 10 books with the Kindle, and I really like the idea that I can bring and store all the books with the handy device. Besides, it uses the e-ink technology, so even I read with the device for long hours, I don't feel tired. My only complaint is the white case, right now all the Kindles are in white color... I think it will be cool if I can have a black or deep blue color Kindle ;)



I'll suggest you to read this review from a top reviewer, it outlines quite a lot of benefits of the Kindle and also why it is worth especially at the end of the review:

I'm a college student and I've the Kindle too. Right now only some textbooks are available for the Kindle, but not all. I've got several textbooks on my Kindle, yes they are cheaper than paper version and it also saves me some heavy weights. Just expect that not all textbooks are available and you better search with textbook titles in the Kindle store to see if they are there:

However to me, the most valuable thing about the Kindle is not textbooks, but ability to get all my favorite books into it and I can bring it everywhere. I can make notes and reference dictionary all with the handy device, and can even have it read books to me. I remember I read this review when I decided to get my Kindle:

For textbooks not available for the Kindle, I bought them from Amazon. I got both used and new textbooks there, because they often give good discount and it saves me quite a lot of money. You may want to look for them early or there will be less and less choice for used books there:

Yes, it can work for students. See a review here from a student who is an owner of the Kindle DX:

I have found that highlighting and using PostIt tabs to mark pages facilitates retrieval of information needed at some time after first reading it.



I could not use a Kindle for academic purposes (learning or teaching).
