Amazon Kindle 2 Review



Hey, it’s Dani from www.makeaquick.com. So I was talking with owner and founder of http://www.makeaquick.com, Egor K., and he saw the new Amazon Kindle 2 electronic ebook reader and insisted that I check it out!

Have you been debating getting an electronic book reader? Now just might be the time to pick one up. Amazon just launched the Kindle 2, which has some significant improvements compared to it’s earlier counterpart.

The Kindle 2 is cheaper, running at $359, and it’s a lot thinner, only 0.36 inches. The Kindle 2 hold about 1,500 books, compared to the original Kindle which holds only 200. It also has a longer battery life.

You can adjust the text size, wirelessly download books with the build in wireless capability without the need for a wi-fi hotspot or monthly service plan and I find that it’s not like reading off a computer screen, in fact - it is very similar to reading a book without the cumbersome weight.

In addition, people are developing all sorts of applications for the Kindle. For example, there is a new app that converts .PDF and .epub docs to the Kindle compatable .mobi format.

Pretty Cool!

There are a lot of people who still read books..no, really! I’m serious. Brands like Sony and Samsung are trying to make it easier for people like you and me to read on the go! Be it, Go Transit, the Subway, Train, or in the car on a long weekend vacation. Dani from www.makequick.com got to test-drive the new Samsung Papyrus. What is a Samsung Papyrus you might ask? It’s an e-book reader, and its super cool. It comes in some sleek colours like sea foam green and black. It also has some great applications to help you keep organized like a memo pad, world clock, contact list, calculator etc. What a handly little organizer.

The Samsung Papyrus will hit the stores this summer in Korea and launching in the US/UK soon. The price is about $299, which is cheaper than all models of e-book readers currently on the market! Maybe They’ll advertise on www.makeaquick.com!



Are you an Xbox 360 Fiend? Or one of those crazy people that mod Xboxs for fun on your spare time? DanI from www.makeaquick.com got exclusive access to Microsoft’s 360development kit. It features double the memory of a stock 360 (1GB) - room in the hardware for devs to debug AND it runs burned discs. This XBOX runs as smoothly as www.makeaquick.com flash technology. Plus.. It looks absolutely super sweet. Unfortunately, this thing isn’t for sale or on the market.
