Video review of the Kindle: Amazon's Wireless Reading Device by Orlando Sentinel Technology Columnist Etan Horowitz. The new Kindle (Kindle II) is rumored to be released next week.

• Yes, we are big fans of books and e-books from the Palm eReader to the Kindle: Amazon's Wireless Reading Device.
  We enjoy the convenience of an e-reader such as the Kindle. All of the books we are reading are always available at the touch of a button plus all the classics we keep meaning to read are also just a click away. Everywhere we take our Kindle, people stare and then just ask - "What kind of device is that? It looks so cool!" Then we go through the whole demo of the Amazon Kindle and they say - I know what I'm asking for my birthday. The Amazon Kindle looks so different than the everyday MP3 players and the Blackberries and Smart Phones with the clear e-ink screen that is so easy to read.

Video review of the new Kindle 2 by a Kindle owner

• This video review of the Kindle 2 sums up my view of the Kindle, even though we just have the original Kindle. We really, really love our Kindle! All our books in one place. Reading on the Kindle is a very easy, pleasurable experience that we find very relaxing.
