1) IT MAKES your library portable
Remember when the iPod first came out and you no longer had to lug around CDs and cassette tapes when you wanted to be enter-tained on the road? In addition to the convenience, there was the sheer capacity of the iPod. You could store thousands of songs in a device that fit in the palm of your hand, and you could access any of them at a moment's notice. Enter the Kindle. It has the same capacity for storage and instant access. You'll get weeks of entertainment in a device small enough to fit almost any purse, all accessible at -- you guessed it -- a moment's notice.
And unlike CDs and cassette tapes, books are heavy, so if you're a voracious reader, you no longer have to lug around pounds of books to ensure you won't get bored on even the longest flights -- or beach vacation.
2) IT LETS you add to your library from anywhere
This is where the Kindle does the iPod one better. Thanks to Amazon's Whispernet, you can add books and other documents at the click of a button. You can also subscribe to blogs, newspapers, and periodicals, and have them added automatically. Kindle makes it easy to keep up with what's happening, without having to squint at the screen of your smartphone or iPhone.
3) KINDLE SCREENS can be read in broad daylight Unlike computer screens, Kindle screens are designed to imitate paper, and they are doing a terrific job. You can read them clearly in any kind of lighting, even in broad daylight while you're out lounging by the pool. Try that with your laptop!
