http://www.PirateLifestyle.com Quickie for the all NEW Pirate Lifestyle TV Show. Amazon Kindle 3 review.

We haven't done one in a while, so today's quickie is a book review. Well kind of, it is actually about the Kindle.

At this time, the Kindle comes in two versions, the WIFI only, and the global 3G with WIFI model. We have the 3G version, which costs 189 dollars, the WIFI only model costs 139 bucks.

In hindsight, for most people I'm sure the WIFI Kindle would be fine. Save the 50 bucks. I mean, you can find WIFI somewhere and you only need the connection when you want to download a book. 

I do like reading, holding, and feeling a real book. I like to be able to fan through a book and re-read something, but it sure is nice to have all my books in one little place. And the Kindle really does look like and read like a book. A cool feature, it always remembers where I stopped reading. 

You really can read it in bright light. The battery lasts a long time. It holds thousands of books. You can load pdf's and other documents from your computer. The Kindle does have a web browser, but to be honest, the little buttons are a pain and I'd rather do my surfing on my iPhone. But if you have no other options it does work.

Funny thing, on Saturday I started reading a real paperback book and I was wishing it was on the kindle.
