My best friend bought me my Kindle as a surprise gift just 2 days ago. This is the very best gift ever! It's so easy to use. The electronic ink is easy on the eyes. The bookmark is super cool. Lets you pick right up where you left off. I love that music can be downloaded to it to listen while you read. I can't say enough good things about this. I love it!

I purchased this Kindle about a month ago, and I am completely blown away! I love everything about it. It came fully set up with my information and name...all I had to do was start reading. It is super simple to use, and navigate. I would highly suggest this over other e-book readers, like sony. This blows the others out of the water. GET A KINDLE TODAY!!!

Steve Bezos showed me his Kindle a year ago at Johns Hopkins Hospital at Wilmer where I am a nurse. I decided then to get one. I really like it very much and enjoy showing it to my friends. There is a problem with the case that comes with it. It is supposed to hold the Kindle in place for easy reading, but it doesn't. I am using the elastic band on the case to hold it. Also I wish a light was built into it. I find the page turning device to be a nuisance since I am constantly touching it by accident. This would be better if the case was improved. Otherwise I am delighted with it and wish I had gotten it sooner.
Great product but a couple of rough edges September 6, 2008

I took the plunge! I ordered a Kindle over Labor Day weekend. First of all, it arrived a day early (Wednesday). I'm not sure if I'm just lucky or if it is standard policy but often with 2-day free shipping with Amazon Prime my order arrives the next business day.
This really is a great product. I've already read several books. I also love the ability to convert/send documents to the Kindle. This feature is great for white papers and technical documents.
There are a couple of rough edges that are understandable for a first-generation product. The buttons do not need be so large. I haven't had any problem with changing pages accidently, probably because I saw dozens of reviews warning people to be careful. The travel/storage case leaves a lot to be desired. Honestly, I'd prefer that they sell it separately and reduce the Kindle price a little.
Like many people, I was delaying my purchase watching for a second-generation product. Now that I have used it for a few days, I have no regrets. It is worth acquiring your Kindle NOW especially with the $100 off promotion using the Amazon Visa card.
Extremely easy to use September 6, 2008

The Kindle is very easy to use, you can change font sizes while reading, purchase books anywhere at anytime and it gets better reception than my cell phone to download books.
