My first generation kindle decided to lock up on me last week. It won’t do anything….turn off, turn page, nothing at all. I tried to reset it with a paper clip on the back, but that didn’t work. I can’t figure out how to get the battery out. Any help would [...]

How to protect your Kindle?

How to protect your Kindle?

So you just spent a few hundred dollars on a neat piece of equipment and you think you don’t need to protect it? Guess again!
Although the Kindle is pretty sturdy, you need to protect the screen. This is the most sensitive part. It’ll probably survive if you drop it from a table, but if you [...]

Text File Problem on Kindle

I have been transferring some of my text files to my Kindle 2, and the files are very readable on that device. There is a problem, however, which I am hoping someone here can help me with. It is this: Following transfer of the text files to the Kindle, I notice that random errors in spelling start showing up on the Kindle display. * The word ‘From’ may become ‘Front’* The word ‘to’ may become ‘o’* The word ‘tell’ may become ‘;hell’* The word ’some’ may become ’som’* The word ‘he’ may become ‘be’* The words ‘come to me’ may become ‘cometome’The errors do not always repeat, either in the same document, or in other documents, but errors of this kind do occur in all of the text files I have copied to the Kindle. And yet they don’t exist in the document that was the source of the copy. It’s as if they are randomly occurring. I have copied the questioned file back from the Kindle to my computer and compared it with the original source that was copied and found them to contain the errors. From this it would seem that the Kindle is correctly displaying the file after it is copied, and that the error occurred somewhere in the copy process itself. I have never seen this happen when copying from computer to computer, or from one disk drive to the same /or another drive so I’m wondering if the Kindle is doing any processing of the file before it is actually recorded in the Documents folder. I look forward to any suggestions you may have. BTW: I am using MS Vista Home Professional on my computer, and I am using the standard copy process available in Windows.

Women in Love by DH LawrenceMrs Dalloway by Virginia WoolfShakespeare plays: Twelfth Night, Henry V, Macbeth, Coriolanus, King Lear, The Winter’s TaleMy daughter the English major just got a Kindle for her birthday and wants to lighten her backpack! There are so many choices, especially for Shakespeare, that I have no idea how to choose the best edition… Any experience with particular editions or epublishers? Thanks!

Kindle needs a PC and MAC ebook viewer – just like BN

It’s ridiculous that Amazon has not implemented this. Trying to protect sales of their Kindle is ridiculous and futile – they should focus on selling ebooks. Also native PDF is essential for the Kindle 2 to succeed. BN will own Amazon once their readers come out.
