While the Amazon Kindle has become one of the most popular purchased items over recent years, those who do not yet own a Kindle often end up asking “Why” – why would anyone want to sit there and stare at a “computer screen” when they could read a normal book instead! And while the Kindle is by no means for everyone, it is certainly important for those critics of the Kindle to recognize that the Kindle is not at all just a “computer screen”; in fact, there are a number of truly tremendous benefits to owning a Kindle!
Generally speaking, you will have to travel to a bookstore in order to purchase a book that you are really looking forward to reading, or you will have to order the book online and wait for it to be shipped to you; when you own a Kindle, however, you can order a book and start reading it within about a minute!
Another huge advantage of the Kindle is the weight of it; of course, when you compare it to one book, there is not that much of a difference in weight (or in size), but when you compare taking a Kindle with you on a business trip or on holiday to taking a pile of books with you on a business trip or on vacation, you realize that the Kindle provides you with a mountain of convenience, as you can always keep several books with you in one, tidy package!
And even though the Kindle costs some money you will end up saving money in the long run with the Kindle, as you will be able to spend a lot less money for each eBook than you would have to spend for each paper book.
Honestly, reading from a Kindle is really not all that different from reading from a book (the Kindle uses digital ink, which means it does not feel like you are looking at a computer screen; instead, it feels like you are looking at a book page), and in addition to the similarities between the Kindle and a regular book, there are also the numerous advantages the Kindle gives to everyone who chooses to use it!
