Seagazer Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I've just ordered the £99 one for OH, I figured if he doesn't use it someone will (possibly me....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms Marple Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Can you share your books on any kind of Kindle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saronne Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 You can if you have two devices registered to the same Amazon account... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I am afraid my Kindle Fire has been returned It unfortunately really hurt my eyes after reading it for a while,& as its main purpose is as a reader,that is something I just couldn't live with. Sad,its a nice little thing,but the rest of its functions my phone can do anyhow. I found it heavy too. Ah well,back to e-ink for me!

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I just can't decide between a Kindle Paperwhite and a Nook . Can you borrow books from your local library for a Kindle? My library website seems to say not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel19 Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 No but Amazon have their own library system for Amazon Prime members - i think they have quite a big selection of books available that way as well as being able to purchase.

Cinnamon Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 From what I have read about the Nook,there can be a 'blank' spot in the center of the page,as the lighting is around the edge. Personally I like being with Amazon too - with such a vast selection of books at your fingertips,it seems to me the easiest way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 That's interesting, I'll look into that, thanks. I've just admitted to OH that I'm considering getting one for him. Just as well I did, he says he doesn't want one . Oh well, now I know what I'll be getting (myself) for Christmas . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
