Neat Review

Kindle 2 Released on February 24-th 2009 (shipping start date) the Kindle 2 is the gadget everyone was waiting for. This e-book reader has some improved features such as 25% longer battery life, 20% more speed in page turns, an improved screen supporting 16 shades of gray (up from 4 shades provided with the Kindle 1). The design is slightly different with a clearly visible improvement – its visible thinner than the older Kindle.Those who used this kind of tools before say the gadget is extremely useful since it’s weight is several times lower than the weight of a regular book. Still, it can store up to 1500 titles, which proves to be very convenient when you travel.

For those who want to do the math about the total amount of money you will have to invest in this technology we inform the Kindle 2 is $359 and every title starts from $9,99. You might think all this adds up to over $1000 if you want to have more than 10-20 titles, but if you consider the advantage of actually having the whole library with you everywhere and the fact that pages will look like new even after a number of years then you know you’ve done a good deal. Other new features are: text-to-speech, smaller buttons, USB charger.

We are still waiting for backlight useful when reading in dark. We are now waiting for readers feedback to see if Kindle 2 is a success, though everyone agrees the improvement are not fantastic but visible. If you’re looking to buy this device you can find one here.
