Basic Kindle Review?

For someone who wants an ebook reader specifically to read books, the inexpensive basic Kindle can be an ideal choice.

Can a kindle power adapter be used for an iPod?

Almost certainly, yes. But here is some useful info.

Things you need to know: voltage (measured in V, either AC or DC) and current (measured in mA, or milliamps).

Think of voltage as what the power supply 'gives'.

Think of current as what the device 'draws' or 'takes'.

Your home outlet/socket will be at 110V AC (USA/Canada etc.) or 220/240V AC(Europe and Middle East). And it will permit almost unlimited current - up to the limit on your fuse or junction box.

Your device (Kindle/iPod) needs 5V DC, and will draw 85mA (Kindle) or 100mA (iPod)

The adapter is a transformer which converts the AC (alternate current) to DC (direct current), and 'steps down' the voltage from the 110 or 220 to a mere 5V. Most adapters will do this, and the main difference between adapters is the different voltages they give out.

BUT - the current they permit will vary, and that is where you need to be careful. Your standard USB port on a computer will enable a device to draw 100mA. The Kindle adapter is only rated for 85mA, which means that if your ipod is trying to draw 100mA, it will be drawing slightly more than the adapter is designed for. That may lessen its life.

MOST IMPORTANT - any adapter you use for Kindle or iPod *must* be 5V. If the voltage is any higher it can fry the device. And if the voltage is any lower it will underpower the battery, which is bad for it.

All adapters specify the voltage, and they also give an indication of the current they will allow to be drawn.

An apple iPod adapter says on it that it gives 5V DC and permits 100mA draw.

A Kindle adapter says on it that it gives 5V DC and permits a 85mA draw.

When an iPod is connect to a computer USB it is drawing the standard 100mA. When a Kindle is connected to a computer USB it is drawing slightly less (85% in fact).

So the short answer is: yes you can, but you will be working the adapter harder than a Kindle would.

Is email free on the Kindle?

I have the 2nd generation 6" Kindle, so results may vary if your version is different.

The Kindle browser on the 2nd gen Kindle isn't exactly the fastest and the width of the screen doesn't help much, either. I can easily read my gmail on it, but haven't managed to access any other webmail services.

So yeah, email is free, except you can't (easily) use it.
