It's not pink, and it isn't a laptop, but the Kindle is way too cool not to mention, so we finally decided to add it to the Diva's list!
Description
At 10.2 ounces, Kindle is lighter than a typical paperback and as thin as most magazines. Barely a third of an inch in profile, you'll find Kindle fits perfectly in your hands. Kindle is as easy to hold and use as a book. We designed it with long-form reading in mind. When reading for long periods of time, people naturally shift positions and often like to read with one hand. Kindle's page-turning buttons are located on both sides, allowing you to read and turn pages comfortably with one hand from any position. The page-turn buttons now flex inward to prevent any accidental page turns when picking up or handling Kindle. Kindle has a new easy-to-use 5-way controller, enabling precise on-screen navigation for selecting text to highlight or looking up words. Kindle is completely wireless and ready to use right out of the box--no setup, no cables, no computer required. With Kindle's 25% longer battery life, you can read on a single charge for up to 4 days with wireless on. Turn wireless off and read for up to 2 weeks. Battery life will vary based on wireless usage, such as shopping the Kindle Store and downloading content. In low coverage areas or in 1xRTT only coverage, wireless usage will consume battery power more quickly. Whispernet utilizes Amazon's optimized technology plus Sprint's national high-speed (3G) data network to enable you to wirelessly search, discover, and download content on the go. Your books and periodicals are delivered via Whispernet in less than 60 seconds. And unlike WiFi, you never have to hunt for a hotspot.

I was quite happy when I bought kindle. The only problem that it broke in 3 months, without any external impact.
I downloaded several books on my new Kindle to take on an overseas trip. I accidently dropped the Kindle while pulling it out of the case. It didn't fall far, and the floor was linoleum, but it was ruined. My laptop is much less fragile.
Both myself and my wife love the Kindle. It is so easy to use and downloading books is so quick.
I brought a kindle from amazon and it's the best thing since slice bread. My sister and I read a lot of books, and when I heard about the kindle,I knew I had to have one. Well I finally got one and the day I got mine, the next day my sister brought one. I love it, everywhere I go someone is asking about it and you should see the smile on my face. thanks amazon
This product is good for only one thing...and it does it perfectly. It makes the world of books and newspapers perfectly available.I have owned my Kindle for about a month and I am already reading more because it is so easy to acquire books and keep them nearby.I have purchase a couple of titles and downloaded several classics at no cost. The classics are better read from front to back because there is not usually a linked table of contents; but what do you expect for free. I also subscribed to my favorite national daily newspaper and the Kindle edition arrives a day before the print version that I have not yet unsubscribed. Overall, I am extemely pleased with the Kindle. I recommend it to any serious reader.
