Ada,
Agreed! And since I wrote this, it’s really come down in cost too. Back then it was still right around $200!

Cheers and thanks for reading,

There is one reason that kindle can still live well beside the iPad, that’s its lower price.

This invention of iPad seems to be quite impressive but it would have been better if it runs on solar energy as the current scenario of the ecosystem leading to global warming is concerned.

How about college textbooks? Most students would probably use the Kindle app for iPad since there are more Kindle titles available, but there are still a lot of titles not available for either. And the discounts are pretty minor in many cases.

iPad won’t touch Kindle.

I am a Apple Geek and couldn’t wait to get an iPad. My wife has had a Kindle for months and loves it. Got my iPad, and was drooling to read by the pool…The above post says “bedroom, bathroom, and the beach.” Better scratch the beach.

The screen cannot be read in direct sunlight. It washes out even with the brightness on it’s highest level. Secondly (and the death nail for me) the iPad overheats in sunlight on a moderately warm day. It was 83 degrees and the iPad was good for about 15 minutes before it shut down due to heat and had to be taken inside.

I returned the iPad and ordered another Kindle.

Seriously, do you not understand that it’s bad for your eyes to stare at an LCD screen? The reason to buy a kindle, the reason it is expensive, is that it’s screen is more advance than that of an Ipad.

Electronic Ink, look it up.

Form and function win every time; consumers can take the iPad with them to the bedroom, the bathroom and the beach.

I tend to disagree. Not everyone wants an ebook reader that is heavy and that can do many things. When I read I read. I don’t want to be distracted by a web browser, music player or anything else for that matter. The iPad is over-rated, expensive and not all that impressive. I will gladly use my laptop when I want to surf the web or watch videos.
