How does it work with Kindle e-books?

I use it more than my Kindle, especially for books that have color pages like photography books or guide books, etc. Also, the only drawback to Kindle usage is you have to go to your browser (Safari, Chrome) and go to Amazon.com to purchase the book vs being able to browse the Kindle store and make purchases and download samples directly in the Kindle app .. In the end its just an extra step vs. the actual Kindle devices. I can say the battery on my iPad lasts a very long time as long as you put brightness at 50% (which is seriously quite bright, I don't think you could look at the screen very long at 100% without going blind, lol). Drawback is it takes a long time to charge fully (not like a phone that is quick, but again, it lasts a long time once charged so long as you're not watching videos). I have some non Kindle books in .mobi form and since there is no way to "put them on the iPad" with a cord like the Kindle .. I just upload them to Dropbox into a folder I named "Kindle" and I use the Dropbox app, click on the book, then in the upper right hand corner there is a little arrow, click it and select "open in Kindle". Boom it will now load the book into your Kindle app and you don't need to go to Dropbox anymore. Highlights still work and notes, and bookmarking etc. just like all the other books, however books on your device vs. directly from Kindle don't "sync" to other devices, but that's cool, because they don't on Kindle devices either.

Its a very simple process to download either into Ipad or Iphone. I have done both. pulling books up is simple and look good on the ipad.

I don't have this specific device, however, if this kindle has a micro usb port, you will have no problems.

We haven't tried with Kindle, but my son uses it with his ipod 5 and it works great. He connects to it by the wire of speakers going into his headphone plug area. Hope this helps.

It has a basic text reader. So, you can put e-books in .txt format onto it and read them. You can change the text size and color and save your place but you can't change the font type.

If it has Bluetooth capability, it should work with it. I'd double check your Kindle documentation.

I have not used it with Kindle, but I have used it with my Samsung tablet and a pair of v-moda headphones. It works great. The audio sounds better than just a direct feed from the tablet.

Hi Laurel, I cannot find my daughter's Kindle, however I am confident it works with it. I have not found a device that it does not work with. It works with my Android phone (same technology as a Kindle), with my Samsung LCD TV, my daughters Mac Book, etc. The sound is excellent, better than my TV... and my older daughter actually confiscated it for her own use. The only downside when using with a TV is that it does not have a volume control. Then phone and Mac Book allow the volume to be controlled so you should not have that issue.

If your Kindle operates with a capacitive stylus, this will work fine. Check your Kindle manual for stylus specs.

Eh, yes and no. It's not like the Kindle where you purchase the book right there and its on the device - to get a book from Amazon, you would have to download it to your PC, use a program such as Calibre to convert it to another format (not sure if Calibre will strip DRM or not), and transfer it to the device. Kobo has their own bookstore built into the device and into the Kobo desktop software. It works pretty well and has pretty much every book I have ever searched for. However, I should warn you that I have had issues with DRM on the device - not just with the Kobo store, but with Adobe DRM which is supposed to work with the device This device is really ideal, in my opinion, for someone who is a bit more technically minded. It is easily mountable on a PC as a USB storage device, Calibre works flawlessly with it, it has SD card expansion slot, and it supports all the major eBook formats. If you like a device with a bit of flexibility (but requiring a bit of tech knowledge), this device is a great money saver. If you want something that is going to work flawlessly with the Amazon Kindle store and not give you any fits, I recommend actually getting a Kindle. Its like asking what the difference between an Android and an iPhone is. One is easy to use, but is limited (Kindle). The other is much more powerful and cheaper, but requires a bit more tinkering (Kobo). The question really comes down to what you want in an ebook reader, and - probably far more importantly - do you plan to get your books from Amazon, or from other sources?

You will need to install free app from market, and it will work like Kindle.....

Sony has developed their own e-reader app. You can try downloading it for compatibility with Kindle: https://ebookstore.sony.com/download/

I purchased it with my Kindle Paperwhite and that is how I have charged it. Seems to work fine.

I use Ubuntu 10.10 with Gnome, it works nicely. Kindle OS is made with the Linux kernel, just in case you want to know.

Somehow, I got to be an expert on the Slick e-reader. I remember little about it, other than I returned it after a few days. And, that was a while ago. I don't believe that it is a tablet, which would allow you to get the Kindle app. Since it is an epub reader, one will have to convert the Kindle .mobi format, but is it possible? Do a Search on your computer.

Yes indeed! I have apps from Google Play and Amazon Apps. I downloaded the Kindle App on all three of my tablets and my PC and all work beautifully. I've bough many Kindle books.
