Many people have heard the fuss about the new Amazon Kindle ebook reader and think that they would like one, but do not really know an awful lot about them.
So what is an ebook reader, and is it the same thing as an ebook device or an e-reader or an electronic book? An ebook reader is actually the device that will enable you to read any book that is in digital format, including PDF's. The terms e-reader, and ebook device mean the same thing, whereas the electronic book is the actual book you are going to be reading.
So an ebook reader is a device that you can carry around with you, and it stores text from periodicals, and books. The Kindle DX can actually store 3,500 products, so you will have lots of room to store all your favorites!
So once you have decided that you want the portability of an ebook reader you need to know what happens next. All you need to do is to choose the books that you want to have downloaded onto your new ebook reader, and simply download them. This is done wirelessly with the newer Kindle models, and via a computer internet connection on other models.
If you love to read nice thick text books then you may find that being able to store lots of these on your Kindle and then just carry one slim, quite small product around with you is a real benefit.
If you find it hard to read standard text, you have the facility to increase the font size, or you could decide to have the kindle e-book reader read the book out loud to you. This is a great idea if your eyesight is failing a little.
Another really great bonus is that you can download the first chapters of books to see if you are going to enjoy them, before you part with any money. So no need to waste money on buying books that you just can't get into.
All in all, if you love reading, then you are going to enjoy having a Kindle. The prices vary depending on the model you decide to go for, and you can get lots of information on this Kindle ebook reader review site where you can find the best prices and deals around.
