My Mom and I like to read some of the same books so I may consider the Kindle for her as a gift. <br /><br />I have an iPad but don&#39;t read much on it - its the first generation one and I find it a bit heavy. I did take it to Thailand and loved how I could travel with so many books without the bulk.Booksnychttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11197753056299399065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-66255753913298997972011-09-10T12:26:00.397-04:002011-09-10T12:26:00.397-04:00Sounds like the Kindle is a perfect thing for a tr...Sounds like the Kindle is a perfect thing for a trip.

I’ve been working around the clock on a MS revision. Life is a bit easier now that the kids are back to school as of yesterday.<br /><br />Pamela, the back pain on vacation gave me the shove to the Kindle.<br /><br />Kacky, the best solution is having both a Kindle (for books) and an iPad (for aps). <br /><br />Cat, I also keep my iPad in my purse for reading on the go. I agree that the content matters more than the format when it comes to reading.<br /><br />Amanda, let’s hear for independent bookstores!<br /><br />Cid, my daughter’s Kindle charge lasted for the 4 weeks of camp as there wasn’t much time to read.<br /><br />Cynthia, lucky you to have both. My husband didn’t like how he lost his place when he changed font size on the iPad and also the glare outside. I don’t like the eye strain of reading a back lit screen. iPads are better for blogs and aps. At home I prefer a book.<br /><br />Rose and Donna, thanks for sharing your experience with ereaders. I am lucky to have avid readers. <br /><br />SG, I’d guess that a US or UK Kindle would work in India with a plug adapter.Sarah Laurencehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00423008641739156182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-33042069169929749582011-09-02T11:28:43.683-04:002011-09-02T11:28:43.683-04:00Kindle seems to be the answer for the traveling bo...Kindle seems to be the answer for the traveling book lover.

I probably will eventually, at least a little bit, like you do. My husband got a Nook a few weeks ago because he travels. He re-reads his books over and over again (he has hundreds of fantasy books) and is planning on buying many of them as e-books eventually, which seems redundant to me. He&#39;s going to buy a lot of his new books in e-book form, which does make sense. <br /><br />I think it&#39;s great that your son read so much this summer and that you were all able to read the same things together too!Donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10352909161587824227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-71497128064690130932011-08-31T22:05:32.696-04:002011-08-31T22:05:32.696-04:00I agree the Kindle is great for traveling, and you...I agree the Kindle is great for traveling, and you&#39;ve given me some extra ideas. I had never thought about downloading travel guides; it would be nice if more of that type of print material were available for the Kindle. My son bought me the case with the light last winter which I&#39;ve really enjoyed. But my favorite feature has to be being able to change the font size--no more need for reading glasses:)<br /><br />How wonderful that your children are such avid readers!Rosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-6590345948527508462011-08-31T20:27:45.780-04:002011-08-31T20:27:45.780-04:00Also meant to say I hardly ever read electronicall...Also meant to say I hardly ever read electronically.

I have both a Kindle and an iPad and much prefer my iPad for reading books so I was surprised by your husband&#39;s response. I bet an iPad would work better for jumping around in your travel books. Still, the coolest thing is you and your kids all using Kindles and sharing books. What a great idea--maybe that&#39;s why your husband felt left out.cynthiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17191343885172954990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-81705298188713409252011-08-31T17:07:40.653-04:002011-08-31T17:07:40.653-04:00My father is off to Switzerland with his Kindle, I...My father is off to Switzerland with his Kindle, I ordered him the European adapter to take but I will tell him your other suggestions. My son and I have Kobos (as they have the most available books in Canada) and you made an interesting point about ereaders at camp. His does not allow any electronic devices and the cabins have no where to charge them. I wonder what will happen in the future as more and more kids use ereaders. I could never say no to a kid who wants to read whatever the mode.Cidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11915993866394084808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-68350740672871441012011-08-31T15:51:32.132-04:002011-08-31T15:51:32.132-04:00i was interested to learn about how well the e-rea...i was interested to learn about how well the e-reader worked for you in your travels - my husband has been encouraging me to buy one for some time now as we travel quite a bit. <br /><br />however, i love the fact that you still patronize your local (and independent!) book store - even with the onset of e-publishing, may the bookstore live on!Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00942636545948440422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-5557899764592184692011-08-31T14:03:05.070-04:002011-08-31T14:03:05.070-04:00I love my Kindle too and happily stash it in my pu...I love my Kindle too and happily stash it in my purse so I can read at any opportunity! Isn&#39;t it wonderful to share the love of reading with your children? It makes me so happy to know that the love of books has been passed down another generation. There are many times when &quot;real&quot; books are in order too; art, photography, cookbooks...I&#39;m not too picky about the format of reading material just so long as there is plenty of it around!Cathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03872899189875117518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-26353878988796343892011-08-31T13:34:19.702-04:002011-08-31T13:34:19.702-04:00I have an iPad and I like it but have wondered abo...I have an iPad and I like it but have wondered about the Kindle. I don&#39;t know a lot about it but I was not aware you could do more than just books on it. That is good to know. My husband wants an iPad and I have been wondering about giving him mine and getting the Kindle. I don&#39;t mind reading on the iPad at all but still do enjoy the hard backs.
