Brian Gabriel shows consumers how to use technology to save time and money. He reviews the Kindle 2 at http://www.thekindle2.info/
The Kindle 2 holds a lot of books, yes. But it brings content into your life in many more ways than letting you bring a lot of books around with you. When you are reading a book, for example, you can look up an unfamiliar word and get a definition. In addition, if you want a more detailed explanation of something you find in the book, you can access Wikipedia. So you will literally spend hours on Kindle 2 once you get a hold of it.
When you want more books you can start by reading the first chapter of almost any book before deciding to buy it. This is kind of like having a bookstore everywhere you go. You can browse books and read what they are about from anywhere. Customer reviews are available too. Most new releases are only $9.99, which makes them a lot more affordable than the printed books from the bookstore.
Beyond reading books you can also read newspapers and blogs on your Kindle 2. Newspapers such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and magazines like Time are available for purchase. If you get a subscription, they are delivered to your kindle early in the morning. I'm exited that you can also get blogs on you Kindle 2.
If you're into seriously detailed reading, you can annotate the content quite easily. You can highlight important passages and mark up your text. The nice thing is that Amazon backs it up on their website forever, so you don't have to worry about losing your annotations.
Kindle 2 makes content a central theme in your life. Books, magazines, blogs, whatever. It's all there in your Kindle 2, with you wherever you go. This is the way to get everything you read into one place and simplify your life.
