The wife he is referring to is SnotBubbles. ETB handles the cooking and cleaning, which is why the Kindle would be of no use to him.justincredible;915686 wrote:She can read while cooking and cleaning? Impressive.

Serious question for Kindle owners/users. Think I am going to buy one right now. For a first time user, is the regular Kindle just fine, or should I get a touch, or should I get one with a keyboard? How often would she use the keyboard, and for what?

Make sure to get a left handed Kindle so she can still stir the pot with her right hand.

Get either the touch or the keyboard (get the touch). Because while the no keyboard one will work fine lots of people like to search for specific passages or whatnot in their books. For that the touch keyboard is much better than selecting each letter with the jog dial.

I'd just get the $79 version if I were buying a new one.ernest_t_bass;915709 wrote:Serious question for Kindle owners/users. Think I am going to buy one right now.

OK, but what do you feel about the things IWP said? It makes sense.justincredible;915724 wrote:I'd just get the $79 version if I were buying a new one.

I've hardly ever used the keyboard on our kindle. I don't think my wife has either.ernest_t_bass;915725 wrote:OK, but what do you feel about the things IWP said? It makes sense.

OK. I might spring for the $99 touch, but I think I'd rather get the thing now, instead of waiting until November.justincredible;915734 wrote:I've hardly ever used the keyboard on our kindle. I don't think my wife has either.

Perhaps another dumb question, but how does one rent a book from the library for the Kindle? Do you go online to download, or do you have to actually go to the library?
