Kindles have been around for awhile now. There are many different designs that incorporate different technology. You can read books on all Kindles. On other Kindles (the Fire) you can surf the internet. For years my husband has told me that the Kindle Paperwhite is *the best* Kindle out there. We tried the Kindle Fire (and sold it). We tried the original Kindle (and sold that too). I prefer to read old fashioned books that I check out for free from the library. Or I thought I did…until I read all of the books in the Harry Potter series. Those books are THICK and holding them became a challenge. My husband pulled up Harry Potter on the Kindle Fire and I swooned. It truly is an absolutely amazing device. My husband *was* right all along.
About the Kindle Paperwhite
- No screen glare in bright sunlight
- Read with one hand—over 30% lighter than iPad mini
- Battery lasts weeks, not hours
- Built-in light—read without eyestrain
- Try Kindle Unlimited for free—choose from over 700,000 titles. Try it free for 30 days
Get the Kindle Paperwhite for just $99 right now. My husband, a frugal technology nerd (my words, not his), says this is the lowest price a new Kindle Paperwhite sells for.
As for me, I just ordered a second Paperwhite for our house…..because I want to take it on vacation with us and I realized that I can’t share with my husband since we can’t both read on one device at the same time. 🙂 So, Happy Mother’s Day to me.
Sometimes, just maybe, digital is better.
