'Great first effort! September 7, 2008
'Love the kindle. It is just what e-books needed. Now, there's a true impetus for more content.
There needs to be a greater selection of newspapers, magazines and books available. While the book publishing community seems to be responding well, I can't say as much for the periodicals, as they're far too limited almost one year after launch. While I can still see myself buying books in addition to e-books, I'd never get another newspaper or magazine if it could be had on the kindle.
Regarding the firmware, I'd like to see an option to disable the right side, NEXT PAGE bar, and folder organization of content.
Also, the Kindle Daily blog should be a free delivery option, not just on the Shop Kindle home page. In fact, if it were, I'd likely visit the home page more often.
For the price, the included book cover should be canned and replaced with the M-edge executive leather or something comparable.
Also, 'really would like to see the power buttons moved to the top, front or bottom of the device, as it is a pain to access them on the back when a cover is used.

My best friend bought me my Kindle as a surprise gift just 2 days ago. This is the very best gift ever! It's so easy to use. The electronic ink is easy on the eyes. The bookmark is super cool. Lets you pick right up where you left off. I love that music can be downloaded to it to listen while you read. I can't say enough good things about this. I love it!

I purchased this Kindle about a month ago, and I am completely blown away! I love everything about it. It came fully set up with my information and name...all I had to do was start reading. It is super simple to use, and navigate. I would highly suggest this over other e-book readers, like sony. This blows the others out of the water. GET A KINDLE TODAY!!!

Steve Bezos showed me his Kindle a year ago at Johns Hopkins Hospital at Wilmer where I am a nurse. I decided then to get one. I really like it very much and enjoy showing it to my friends. There is a problem with the case that comes with it. It is supposed to hold the Kindle in place for easy reading, but it doesn't. I am using the elastic band on the case to hold it. Also I wish a light was built into it. I find the page turning device to be a nuisance since I am constantly touching it by accident. This would be better if the case was improved. Otherwise I am delighted with it and wish I had gotten it sooner.
