Kindle Book Reader
Kindle Book Reader
The Amazon Kindle Book Reader is a device that allows you to read electronic books (ebooks) on a handheld wireless device. Instead of reading a book by paper you read in on a screen instead making it much more eco-friendly.
Oprah has already said that she loves her Kindle Book Reader as it can hold hundreds of thousands of books at once and is a joy to read from.

What's amazing is that the Kindle 1 has retained its value well. I checked prices on the Kindle 1 and they go for about $60, kind of pricey for such a clunky thing. I guess it's nostalgia! :)
helpfull post thanks for the good read :-)
Oh thanks for the answer. I will check her profile..
DO you make sales of Kindle 2 by promoting it on here(hubpages)?
Or do you have a special website for this?
If you dont mind, can you tell me which product do you promote more(that earns really) on hubpages? Because right now I am looking for some free ways to promote, like hubpages..
Thanks Again....

Hi Tushar09,
I usually use hubpages to find profibable products before building a site around it. I do make sales of the Kindle (although mostly from the kindle 2 rather than the dx which is more expensive).

I'm still waiting until they arrive in Australia. I think I'll be waiting a while :)
I really want one of these, but I still think the price is a little too high.
