I wonder if the above person has even SEEN a Kindle???
I received a K2 for a Christmas gift and have fallen in love with Kindle. Bought myself a K3 just because it's a bit smaller (and the price has dropped so much!) and holds 3000 books (the K2 holds 1500). I'm so spoiled reading it. Love not having to turn pages.. just press a button. And I can read outdoors with no problem. I have more then 140 books 'associated' with my Kindle (although I let Amazon "keep" them for me in their storage. I move them to my K2 when I want to read it) I know... why get the K3 but hey.. it's just fun to know I CAN have all those books at once in my hand. Ü
"Amazon" has been a wonderful business to work with and the discussion forums on Kindles helps with any questions you might have and information you might want to know. Actually, last week I found a forum thread talking about ALL the things you can do on this e-reader. I knew you could listen to music but that's only a tiny bit of all the options. More then this non-geek could ever use but fun to know it's an option.
I told my husband there is nothing he could ever get me that could top this for a gift. I 'lent' him the K2 when I got my K3. He really enjoys it, too.
Yes, Kindle works in Romania. The latest generation Kindle (3rd) is international. The downside is that Whispernet transfers cost more and that's reflected in the price of the books on Amazon. Other than that, it works great.
Positive avenues in reading to modern man?
Positive avenues for reading that concern the modern man point to more technologically advanced ways of doing things. This includes eBooks and eReaders such as the Nook and Kindle.
Which do you think is better - the Amazon Kindle or the Sony eReader?
The Amazon Kindle is better in some ways and the sony ereader is better in others.
It really depends on which sony ereader you are dealing with. The PRS-700 BC is more advanced with touch screen, landscape view, LCD light for night reader which are some of the things the Kindle does not offer.
On the other hand, the Amazon Kindle offers wireless delivery of books in under one minue, access to over 300,000 books at the Kindle store, plus magazines, newspapers, and blogs.
The sony reader offers only 160,000 books from the sony store.
For more information, look at the comparison given in the links.
Hope this helps.

I personally preffer the kindle over the sony ereader. Even though it doesn't have a touch screen or colour (they are making ones with colour right now) you can listen to music and there is more of a variety with books and you can go on websites.
How can you tell how much kindle space is left?
Kindle does not use a Hard Drive, it uses Flash Storage.
to view how much memory you have free, I assume you would look at the properties of the device when plugged in.
1. plug the device in
2. go to My Computer
3. Right click on the device
4. click PROPERTIES.
Your remaining space should be there. (Windows 95 --> win7)
