I just found your site & blog and am enjoying what I have seen so far. My husband surprised me with a Kindle2 for Christmas - well, I had to wrap it so I know it's there waiting for me tomorrow! Everything I have heard/read about it convinces me that it will be great, and I am pleased to hear what you had to say as well. I can hardly wait to open it up tomorrow and get started using it. I look forward to reading more on your blog and learning more about Epi Kardia. Thanks and have a very Happy Christmas. Blessings, Mrs. H Beth,

It sounds like we've had similar Kindle experiences! I appreciate the insight on why there isn't a back light. Thanks for commenting. Beth Jeffrey,

I really enjoyed reading your thoughts and experiences of the Kindle. You may be interested in a free book that Amazon offers, Letters of a Woman Homesteader. It is a memior of a single (then married) woman in Wyoming in the pioneer years. I laughed out loud many times and thoroughly enjoyed the read. Just wanted to pass it along, since it was free for the Kindle. Thanks for the great review! I really enjoyed reading your thoughts and experiences of the Kindle.

Lewis Mon, 14 Dec 2009 02:56:40 +0000 http://www.epikardia.com/blog/?p=1518#comment-4660 My Kindle 2 arrived yesterday and I was worried it would not live up to my expectations. I was wrong. It is a magical reading device that I never want to live without. It came ready to use and easy to understand. The screen is clear and it really is just like reading a book. I made my first purchase which was an amazing rush of instant gratification. The experiemental web browser is really exciting, and I look forward to Amazon developing this further. Right now the browser is limited, but the potential is amazing. I am not a fan of electronic reading and I find the greatest joy in a real book. But the Kindle 2 makes my favorite past time convenient and exciting. As a book club member it has made finding and getting new book selections a dream. Initially I was disappointed when I heard the Kindle 2 would not have a back light, but now I recognize the sense behind this. By not having a backlight, my eyes do not tire when reading the Kindle as happens when being on a computer. Was it worth the 359 bucks? You bet. Do I fear Amazon coming out with a better and improved one in a few months? No way, because I consider myself as having come in on the ground floor of something truly exciting. You wont regret this!!! My Kindle 2 arrived yesterday and I was worried it would not live up to my expectations. I was wrong. It is a magical reading device that I never want to live without.
