The Kindle reader is the price of a low end PC but is really clunky and lacking normally expected features when used for accessing reference documents. Navigation is ordinary (slow and difficult) on native books and dreadful on pdf docuements (the links just don't work). PDF to Kindle conversion is useless in a document with substantial graphics.
The quality of publishing on at least one, nearly full priced reference book, "Mastering vba for Microsoft Office 2007" is NOT merchantable quality with arbitrary spacing between letters of the (presumably fixed width) font used identifying text examples.
Why justify the text anyway? Readability is generally recognised as higher with standard letter spacing.
I had hoped that Kindle might provide a way for distributing technical documents but it is way of the mark.
Basically unimpressed.Get more detail about Kindle DX Wireless Reading Device, Free 3G, 9.7" Display, Graphite, 3G Works Globally – Latest Generation.
