Christine Pinkston asked:

As technology has continued to evolve over the years so has the everyday book. But how does one compare to the other?

Is the readability compromised?

Readability is a big one because we all know that staring at a computer screen is very bad for your eyes and essentially the Kindle is a little computer screen. However, with the new technology that they use on the Kindle 2, it does not hurt your eyes. The Kindle 2's page layout is the exact same as a regular book's layout with one exception, you can make the print bigger or smaller with the push of a button.

Can you get lost in the story when you read it on a Kindle 2?

When I read a book I get completely engulfed in it. After the first few pages I don't even realize that I'm turning pages or reading words. It is like a movie playing in my head. That feature alone is why I love reading so much. It offers the ability to relax and escape reality for a little while. Amazingly, with the Kindle 2 I am able to get lost in the book, however, it takes me much longer to be immersed in the story and I don't stay that way for as long. Some of that might simply be because reading a book and turning the pages is so automatic because that is how I've always read a book. Pushing a button is not a natural way to read but I'm sure that over time it will become so.

How does buying a book on Kindle 2 compare to buying a regular book?

If you want to read a new traditional book you will have to go to the store. This can be time consuming and if you are like me and have kids your free time is severely limited. If you are fortunate, the time it will take you to go buy a book and start reading it will be less then 45 minutes. I am not usually this fortunate. This is one of my favorite things about the Kindle 2. I can pick the book I want, pay for it and be reading it in under two minutes.

What about the price of the book? Is it about the same?

The books for the most part are cheaper on the Kindle then they are when you buy them from the store. The new releases cost 10 dollars compared to 20 dollars and many of the older books cost 3-7 dollars while the same ones in the store cost 5-8 dollars. The difference might be because they don't have to print the books out. Where it is more expensive to use the Kindle 2 is the upfront cost of buying the system. Over time it pretty much evens itself out.
