Summary: Pleasure to find the connection!
Comment: Such fun - not only to find ways to connect using my Kindle - but to feel connected to someone who is making inroads and so willing to share. A stranger willing to anser my e-mail??? I can't believe it. So feeling "connected" applies throughout. The excerpt is easy to read - you don't have to be a geek. You don't have to young (I'm a "senior" - although I don't think of myself that way). REALLY recommend this for Kindle users whether you are a beginner or just want some hints.

Summary: Excellent resource!
Comment: This is a great resource for the "early adopters". I had NO idea my little Kindle could do so much stuff! Thanks for this amazing little book!

Summary: Invaluable asset for your Kindle!
Comment: This article is well-written, concise, informative, and VERY USEFUL. I gave it 5 stars for content and usefullness of the information. However, be aware that if you are outside the Whispernet service, most of the information will be unavailable to you because there are numerous hyperlinks throughout the article. My only wish is that the author had furnished everything at once without the hyperlinks. Downloading from Amazon.com produces the same result. In spite of this (major) flaw, I still rate it 5 stars and highly encourage anyone to read it (or find a way into the Whispernet service areas to be able to read most of it).

Comment: I FOUND THE ARTICLES VERY HELPFUL ESPECIALLY ON HOW TO OBTAIN FREE BOOKS AND VIEW PHOTOS ON MY KINDLE.

Summary: I expected a full disclosure...
Comment: Unfortunately, this book is more like a "Neat features about Kindle" user guide without a troubleshooting section than it is a self-help article. One doesn't have to go farther than the "How to use Kindle for Email..." section to find areas that are lacking. The section is laid out in a step-by-step format that shamelessly purports that checking and composing email is "easy-to-use". First of all, the webmail interface he suggests using is bare-bones minimal. Check the inbox and other folders, but hold the organizing and formatting that most people now expect out of an email client. And you want to write and send an email? Watch out for pitfalls and hang-ups in composing, reviewing and sending messages as Kindle's experimental web browser works with a poorly designed nuts-and-bolts Compose Mail form to produce a disappointing experience. All in all this author could have given us more than what any mobile email guide would have done.
