I bought the cover with the built in light and it is perfect. Nice leather and I can read anywhere altho it isn't terribly bright. But would be fine on a long plane flight when you didn't want to use the overhead light. I like the dictionary feature and have highlighted passages. It seems extravagant not to share a book. And I especially like being able to sink it up with my iPhone so that if I don't have it with me, I can read on my phone. Not difficult at all and I've read a whole book on the phone. After the first bit, it seems natural and not small. Enough of my opinions.....I think its great.

You can use the "back" arrow to go back one page.<br />The best thing about it is being able to bring 4 or 5 books on vacation without taking up a lot of space in my suitcase.<br />Also, when my Kindle died suddenly the company replaced it for free and they loaded all my books onto the new one.<br />I'm not sure about your version but I can mark passages, highlight text and make notes in a "notebook" within my Kindle. <br />Can't say enough good things as you can tell.<br />One negative - impulse buying! It's so easy to get a new book, you have to watch that Amazon account. It can add up.<br />Have fun!Katehttp://www.katethemel.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6521164720568046628.post-14977807330109073982010-11-03T10:17:47.998-04:002010-11-03T10:17:47.998-04:00My teenage daughter, a prolific reader, loves her ...My teenage daughter, a prolific reader, loves her Kindle, mainly for the reasons you've already discovered. However, she still has to have a hard copy when it comes to her studies so she can mark passages and refer back to page numbers for relevant quotes. I think it all boils down to what kind of reader you are. (However, do note that most classics are available on the Kindle for FREE!)Vivien Zepfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10110439402332926588noreply@blogger.com
