Kindle 2 Release Date is Today - Amazon's Kindle 2 is Finally For Sale!

After months of people speculating about the new Amazon Kindle 2 version, I just checked Amazon's home page and saw that the Kindle 2 is available for sale.




Pre-Order Kindle 2: Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device (Latest Generation)




Okay, it's working now...


However, those Amazon Kindle 2 yahoo's are experiencing a minor (okay, major) glitch in that when I click on the Kindle 2 links, they show an error leading you not to the Kindle 2 page, but back to Amazon's home page.

Anyway, I'm sure they'll get the Kindle 2 page up and running soon, but in the mean time, they spell out some of the advantages of the new Kindle 2.

Like improved battery life, streamlined design and lightweight paper thin feel.

It only weighed 10 ounces before -- how much smaller can they make the Kindle 2?

I'm looking forward to this device since I felt that the first Kindle was quite a promising product, but one which had quite some ways to go. I do hope the next Kindle will be a more streamlined device. :)

I too took a look on the product. I like the features it can hold up to 1,500 e-books.

I'm ordering it now. The first kindle was ok but I feel that they've finaly targeted all the right stuff with this one. If it works like they promise it will it's gonna be my favourite piece of electronics.

I started searching for prices out there, I looked on ebay and found kindles being bid up beyond the new and used prices that are on Amazon, that does not make sense to me, unless you like wasting money.
I will be putting this on my wish list for Christmas. I usually don't get expensive gifts for Christmas, although I would gladly forgo a Birthday gift to get my hands on one.

The big draw to this product for me is the use of less paper, and when you finally get around to seeing the savings from the reduced prices of the ebooks.

Thanks for the blog

Hi Paula, I was wondering why did you not write anything regarding Sony's Reader Daily (latest digital reader)? I mean, this device looks more promising than Kindle 2.
You did a great job for Amazon's Kindle 2.

Hey K.K. - I haven't read a whole lot about the Sony Reader. Still don't have a Kindle yet. Maybe someday I'll pick one up

I'm a loyal Kindle 2 owner and have found myself bragging about my new toys quite a bit lately.

I did my research before buying and found the Kindle to be the best. I just couldn't get over the wireless. It holds a ton of books, which I can load without a computer, even sitting on the beach. Its nice to hold and look at and I think a fair deal for the money.

I Love my Kindle 2

Mm

FIND OUT HOW MUCH BLOGGERS REALLY MAKE ONLINE -- CHECK OUT THIS NEW WEBSITE ABOUT MONEY-MAKING ONLINE CALLED 50 OVER $50K... by Paula Neal Mooney The time has come. The time is now. Paula N. Mooney will you please publish that list now?! (Yes, I fancy Dr. Seuss' iambic pentameter.) My WebMaster blest me with a viral post called "Paula's List of Blogger Salaries," and the response was so wonderful, here lies an update. It's bigger and better than ever before with more pics, and double the amount of bloggers, webmasters, domainers, affiliate marketers (or a smidgen of some or all of those titles) and their reported incomes. How Much Do You Make? Money is funny. The abundance of it, the lack of it, the subject of cash in general gets attention. While some invoke their choice not to post their online income nor discuss it at all, I've always been of the Suze Orman mindset ever since I read her first book. Suze encourages people to talk ab

UPDATE: PLEASE CLICK THIS LINK TO DIGG THIS STORY AND TELL DIGG TO PLAY FAIR... by Paula Neal Mooney Many of us know the power of Digg.com, dreamed up by Kevin Rose, who touted it as a "user driven" site that says it allows the general public to determine the stories they want to see make it to the front page by voting for interesting articles they find across the web. The more votes the public gives an article, the better chance it should have to make it to the front page. Theoretically... The power of Digg's front page Digg.com -- according to Alexa -- is now more popular than The New York Times. Getting one of your articles or blog posts to the front page of Digg.com will get your website seen by plenty of eyes. John Chow experienced a one-day traffic record of 55,856 page views when one of his posts hit the front page of Digg.
