Why Kindle?

How Kindle:

After dealing with lots of publishers over many years and watching the electronic media market develop and mature, I decided that Kindle Books was best for me and my books. Amazon.com, Kindle's founder, is the premier book seller in the world. Electronic books are the wave of the future, and Kindle offers its readers at ever-declining prices, but most importantly for me, they make their books available for devices many of you already own at no additional cost to you. The Kindle App is free for your PC, your Mac, your smart phones, your various notebooks.

I've read a number of books on my Android phone, and people have asked, "How can you read a book on such a small platform?"

Actually, the Android Kindle App displays text in a width and text size very similar to the traditional newspaper column. Research and experience over many years has shown that narrow columns are much easier to read than wide columns. The Kindle app on phones is actually very easy to read. Your typical family newspaper use these narrow column widths because they are easy to read.

No need to scroll. Finish the page, tap the screen, and the page turns. The app keeps track of where you last read when you close the book you're reading. Uses very little battery power.

In any case, if you own one of the common platforms below, you can downlod the free Kindle app. Then you buy the book at very moderate prices and download it using the very easy Kindle download sequence.
