I recently ordered the [Kindle Wireless Reading Device](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0015T963C?ie=UTF8&tag=sw0fd-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0015T963C)![](http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=sw0fd-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B0015T963C)
device (with its new revised pricing), I was surprised to find kindle ships free to my country. I like reading a lot and have been evaluating ebook readers for some time.
For those like me :) , who likes to get behind the technology driving this amazing e-reader device, the technology behind amazon kindle (and most other e-readers) is e-link. So when every you hear about e-link products, you know its about an e-reader device. The e-link technology focuses on creating lightweight, flexible display with ultra low power.
The new Amazon 2 kindle device provides an ability to play MP3 files, so I could listen to podcasts and talks. The Amazon kindle also provides a PDF document conversion utility which would really help to get my pdf e-books on kindle.
Before buying kindle 2 devices, I did my research and downloaded [Kindle for PC](http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Ffeature.html%3Fie%3DUTF8%26docId%3D1000426311&tag=sw0fd-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957)![](https://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=sw0fd-20&l=ur2&o=1) where I can try out my various pdfs, e-books, and documents, to get a feel of reading the books on a kindle. I really liked the notes and bookmark features that I could associate with my pages. I would suggest you download the [Kindle for PC](http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Ffeature.html%3Fie%3DUTF8%26docId%3D1000426311&tag=sw0fd-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957)![](https://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=sw0fd-20&l=ur2&o=1), just to get the feel of the actual viewing experience and the features.
Usually while traveling, I like to catch up on my presentations, so an ability to view power point presentations would be really nice in a kindle. However, I couldn't find a good conversion utility to convert the presentations into kindle format. Well I converted my PPT in PDF format and then viewed it in Kindle for PC application, and the images came fine.
I was also looking at IPad , I really liked the IPad functionality as it consumes most of the media types along with providing a e-reading viewing experience. I went with Kindle as I was looking out specifically for a nice e-reader device. You can also install the free kindle for IPad software on IPad and evaluate it. Happy reading !!
***With everything going digital in future, the future of kindle holds good.***
