Black Kindle DX

Google eBookstore : the Big eBook Store Ever.

Google releases Google eBook Store to download ebook more than 3 millions digital eBook online. This would definitely effect bookstore in U.S., like Barnes and Noble or Borders but benefits to readers with low price and comfort.

As a big platform, Google eBookstore allows people who are surfing online to  have 2.8 ebooks to download for free while few hundred thousand ebooks are available to purchase.

This will effect Amazon eBook store, and Kindle’s users with limited eBooks however, if we actually look at it. In online ebooks market, Amazon eBook store is still a winner because there are more ebook to purchase with up to 750,000 ebooks while Google eBookstore although free download eBooks only 1.8 millions.

It is true and the downside of Amazon Kindle eReader devices is that Kindle owner can only purchase eBook vis Amazon website while other eReader devices, like Nook and Sony eReader, can get eBooks from Google eBookstore which supports both Android and iOS (Apple). Nook and Sony’s users can switch platforms, unlike eBook from Amazon you have download Kindle application in order to use with you device. Moreover, the word “google” is well known not only in U.S but internationally.

Sadly, platform of Amazon Kindle and Google eBookstore are different and eBook from Google eBookstore can be used with Kindle Amazon. But I think that does not make much different because both platforms have plenty ebooks and they will keep increase every year. That is enough for the whole life.

Each has its own place to be : Kindle 3 VS. Kindle DX

Since a past few months Kindle 3 3G and Wifi have increased in a number of sale. It has all for office-home commuters, and travelers since  its small and compact size, including the weight. However for Kindle DX, there are some arguments about the size which is big (it may be perfect size for someone who are not travelers and commuters, or just like to stay at home and use Kindle DX as a “library”). Another fact is that Kindle DX price is expensive. You can see the difference of those Kindle 3 for 3G at $189 and for WiFi $139 while Kindle DX is $379.

Although Kindle DX is at high price, it can compensate with its merits, which are;

1. Good for PDF. You can tell pretty quickly when using PDF, the move-around controlling square, and zoom out-in for the font of the texts but the downside is that it can not be adjusted the type size as it can be with native Kindle document. It is better for academic study guide.  Compared to Kindle 3, it is much harder to use with PDF text, except you convert it to .PDF file.
2. Large Size: It means large screen. You get far more text per page. This makes the whole experiences more book-like.
3. More Storage: It gives you to store more books although Kindle DX lacks of an external Storage. Up to 3500 books you can enjoy, which is enough for a year.
4. Kindle controlling button,  there is one-handed handling with the button layout making a bit difficult to control. I agree with this point, on the other hand, you won’t accidentally press the buttons and can hold the side which does not have the buttons. Unlike Kindle 3, the buttons are on the both side.

Overall, I can say that Kindle DX is a great eReader device for being like a book because of its text side and pharagra adjustable lines. The size is large enough for reading PFD files and screen is wide like a book.

Kindle essentials: my thought about buying this popular ebook reader

Click here to read officially full specification of Kindle 3 and DX

It’s been a while since I have collected Kindle information, starts from Kindle 2, Kindle 2 global wireless, Kindle DX global wireless, new graphite DX and Kindle 3. Here is my thought about one of the most popular ebook reader which I believe maybe my posting could help a new comer or anyone who is going to buy Kindle to make up their mind.

1. Who want to use Kindle ?

Anyone who loves to read and looking for a new format of book, magazine, fiction, none fiction, and also textbook. Especially for gadget lover, traveller and space saver. Right now Kindle also available internationally, almost all of country in the world. You can check your Kindle’s country by click the link above.

2. Why you want to buy Kindle ?

I think one of a major reason to buy Kindle is that :

2.1 You are living in the limited space such as in dormitory or in condominium and you don’t wanna loose your space to book storage (I think this is one of the problem that book lovers always has).

Another good reason about owning Kindle is that :

2.2 You would like to collect your book and categorize it in order that you like (Similar to one good library, perhaps). I think Kindle could help you to categorized your books in the order that you like and also a very convenient book storage. you won’t loose your book collection anymore

2.3 You can also bring all of your entire e-book library with you (Consider it as IPod classic that you can bring all of your music collection with you all the time).

2.4 Cheaper price for e-book compared with the real book most of Kindle ebook is cheaper than the printed book. At least around 5 % to more than 50 % and I think Amazon’s online ebook buying system is one of the best that is available right now. And with the free 3G global wireless feature from the latest generation of Kindle, There is no boundary about book buying anymore. You can buy ebook, e-newspaper and e-magazine anytime you’re feel like to read something fresh and new.

2.5 You want to save the tree I know for one kindle reader maybe it’s not much for tree saver but If ebook reader become a must have gadget to anyone, who know maybe we can postpone global warm maybe for a few years.

3. The reason why you will not buy Kindle:

3.1 It’s pricey – Even with the latest Kindle 3 WiFi only’s new price, It’s cost is around 140 USD.  With the new price of Kindle DX graphite 9.7 inch, the price is around 380 USD. Some said that they will not spend that much on books in their entire life ! But If you ask me, I think for the book lover, book buying is inevitable. I think Kindle is not book itself, it is a book storage. Pay for this just once in your life for a book storage space about 3,500 – 4,000 books. I don’t think it’s not that expensive.

3.2 It’s not as charm as real printed book – I have to admitted that reading from real printed magazine or book is no compatible. We had experienced it since we started to learn to read. But Reading from Kindle is not that bad. Its e-ink reading screen is quite nice. but you can not actually turn the page like real one ;])

3.3 There is no touchscreen in Kindle - If you have been used IPad, Iphone or IPod touch, you will found that the touch screen technology is very convenience and very natural. Kindle app on IPad, IPhone, IPod touch is so very awesome ! I don’t know why the newest model – Kindle 3 is not comes with touchscreen feature maybe because of the marketing reason. (If you are really into touchscreen ebook reader, I think Sony ebook reader is definitely your choice.)

3.4 It’s black and white – Yes it’s only served in B&W no color ! Amazon has claims that e-ink screen is way better for your eyes, caused no eyes strain. But with some articles and some picture, perhaps we will need it in color. If you are looking for color ebook reader, there are several interesting choice such as IPad or Google tablet ebook reader which is very cheap that you can check out.

4. Which Kindle is best for you ?

Right now there are 3 models available – Kindle 3 with 3G global wireless + WiFi, Kindle 3 WiFi only no 3G and Kindle DX graphite.

With the 6 inch reading screen, I think Kindle 3 is perfect for anyone who is looking for very light, small ebook reader. Perhaps you might like to leave your Kindle in you bag or your briefcase all the time and use it while you have to wait for something. Compared with Graphite DX, It has a longer battery life, WiFi and 3G (DX has only 3G), lighter, smaller (6 inch compared to 9.7 inch).

One thing that I don’t like about Kindle 3 is I think it’s too small (maybe because I already have an IPod touch with Kindle app). If you are a casual reader – no heavy image display needed such for magazine, newspaper, graphic novel, graphical text book. You will love it !

Graphite Kindle DX – I think Graphite Kindle DX is the best way to read ebook reader and e-magazine. Also with a bigger reading screen perhaps Kindle DX graphite can give you more pressure ebook reading experience.

This is bad thing about it : no WiFi the only way to download your ebook is by using 3G global wireless or with EDGE technology if there is no 3G service available in your area. I don’t know how much we can count on EDGE technology. and wonder why Amazon didn’t offered it with DX.

Perhaps it’s too big for casual reading, I don’t quite sure you can read your DX in bed with one had holding or not maybe it’s too heavy.

I think I have done my posting about Kindle essentials. If you have any question, any comments, or any sharing, please write it down in the box below then we can communicate ! thanks so much for reading.

I have thinking about this for a while, How could we make sure that Kindle 3 3G or WiFi is not too small to read and Graphite Kindle DX is not too big and too heavy ! I has read Kindle from my IPod touch which has 3,5 inch screen size for a while If I order Kindle 3 3G global wireless it means that the Kindle 3 size is just twice an IPod touch which I think it’s too small. But If I cancel my order and buy Graphite Kindle DX I kind of afraid it’ll be too heavy with 0.5 kilogram. What do you think ? Could any who already own Kindle 2 and Graphite DX help me with this ? I heard that DX is for textbook reading not for carry around, what do you think ?
