Mr Mojo Rising Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Hi all As the title suggests I am thinking of buying a Kindle. Has anyone got one, if so would they recomend? Â And is there anyway I can download the books free of charge (ala like MP3 torrent sites etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verb Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 my Dad has one, I'd recommend one if you read a lot, it's easy to read (no reflections/glare), and books are very easy to get hold of through various channels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted May 31, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 31, 2011 How much are they? I only ask because is it not worth spending more and getting an iPad? You can get a Kindle app, plus it will be in colour and have so much more to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Carbomb Posted May 31, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 31, 2011 From what I understand (and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, iPad users), the iPad has a standard screen, rather than one designed for e-Readers, so you'll get eye-strain from reading too long.

dodge19822006 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 And is there anyway I can download the books free of charge (ala like MP3 torrent sites etc) Â Â Missed the first part of your question out as I don't have a Kindle myself. 2nd part . You can use torrent sites to get the books. I downloaded 2 different torrents both with over 400 books in them and read them on the laptop.

Steve Justice Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 If you want a cheaper version, get a mate to send you a book to your phone by typing it up and sending you it in the form of text messages. Â That's got to go in Viz Top Tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
