kindle app for ipad
cant understand why anyone would want the kindle when the ipad does kindle and much more |

Dusty, I have both and the Kindle is far easier on the eyes to read for long periods. Much lighter, and the screen has no glare. Can be held easily in one hand whilst lying back. A much better device for reading than the iPad.

I find if im using a device for reading Ill either pivot the ipad on my chest (so no weight) or ill have it on the side table of the stressless. (no hands)
I dont have the newest ipad, i understand the new one even lighter |
|
By:
Yes. thats the one I have, the iPad Air.
It is lighter and thinner, but it's still not a good reading device compared to the Kindle. iPad is better for colour books though like my OU coursework books. |

I read the wife's from time to time and they are very good, but I prefer to read a book for some reason.
Didn't I buy a book for the kindle last year that DWilliam3 wrote? |

Great for reading novels. Not good for technical books with graphs, pictures and formulae. @treble is right about ipad and kindle comparison.

I think the reason people like the Kindle instead of a Kindle type App is simple.
With the Kindle you read a book , you become engrossed in the book , you are not distracted by anything else, you wanted to read and relax and that is what you will do. Now try to do the same on the Ipad or in my case a Galaxy tab with the kindle App , suddenly after a few pages you start to check the horses, check your email, what else you can browse etc , people who buy and use a Kindle do so because they want a device which does the one thing they actually want it to do without distractions from other forms of life. |
