I'd like a touchscreen kindle to get rid of the keyboard which I never use but I'm not buying something that doesn't have physical buttons for page turning.

It would also be a better choice if you really need to read a lot of .pdf files.

Everyone probably knows about these already but I've recently started using two small apps which make me love my kindle even more. http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/?docId=1000719931 Tiny windows app that adds a 'send to kindle' option when you right click files. I use it for documents I have written myself or books from project gutenberg. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ipkfnchcgalnafehpglfbommidgmalan Chrome extension so you can send any webpage direct to kindle with one click. Great for long essays etc.

At more than 1100 pages, reading it in bed required as much strength as balancing a box of bricks in my hands. In my senior years I have developed arthritis in my thumbs, which made the effort not only difficult, but painful. Amazing.

Has anyone ever done that thing where you can return the book in seven days for a full refund? I've bought loads of books on the kindle and never done it before. I've just finished one that was really bad and littered with typos and other formatting errors and am sorely tempted. But on the other hand I did read it all the way through to the end and I've let other books go before that were equally as badly done. I want my money back, but I feel kind of like a dick trying to get it, like I'm ripping off amazon/the writer because I did finish the book. I don't really know what I'm posting this. Just if you've ever returned a book to amazon for the refund tell me why you did it please.

RVProfootballer posted:A really simple reason I like ereaders compared to books is that they're a flat surface that is lit uniformly really easily. I read a paperback book recently and had to adjust the book every other page so that the page I was reading was nicely lit by the table lamp. The ereaders with lit screens are even better. This is one of my favourite 'small things' that I love about reading on a kindle. Others are the dictionary, being able to see the time quicker than getting my phone out, not having to fold corners or look for bookmarks. Little details that don't sound like much but add up for a better reading experience. At this point the only thing I miss about real books is how cool they looked all lined up on my shelf.

I agree with the comments below that review. Looks great and the only reason I'm not giving amazon my money is because there's no physical page turning buttons.
