How do you turn your Kindle on? What's Whispernet? Can I buy a Kindle book for a friend? Can I use my Kindle on a cruise? All of these questions--more than 200 in all--are answered in The Amazon Kindle FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions).

 Easy to use reference guide December 1, 2008
I liked the fact that the authors repeated some of the info in more than one section of their book. You don't have to guess where to find an answer. (Did they put this under "Basics" or under "Other Features"?) I found several interesting tips that I hadn't seen published anywhere else.
 Kindle November 28, 2008
I just received my kindle and i like this device. I love having my books organized, my husband is overjoyed that he does not have to buy more bookshelves. I stopped for lunch and several people wanted to see the kindle and find out what it is like to use one. Many are surprised that newspapers and magazines could also be purchased wirelessly on the kindle. I can't wait for the experimental items to become part of the kindle experience.

I gladly wandered through the online thread gleaning kindle knowhow until this reference book was mentioned. Now I more gladly use my kindle search button with The Amazon Kindle FAQ on my kindle for all the instant answers to my questions. Love the concise "hands on" style.

This Kindle FAQ is a great addition for anyone who has a Kindle. Even though you may know alot of things this FAQ includes, there are alot of new things that you will discover just by reading this.
This FAQ isnt to long and its not to short. It gets straight to the point, and is very helpful. I would highly recommend this to anyone who just got a Kindle or has had one for quite sometime now.
A MUST HAVE September 27, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I am neither computer or electronic device savy. I have difficulty text messaging, too slow. This is awesome for someone like me who needs simple directions. It has a wealth of information, great organization and is more informative that the book that comes with the Kindle. I think it is a must have for anyone with a Kindle and I know I will refer to it often as I began my Kindle journey.
