  • T4nz4ni4232,

    The Kindle uses a screen technology known as "E-Ink," or "E-Paper." It works by suspending particles of titanium dioxide in dyed oil.

    This is not a black-and-white LCD screen here, guy. A "color screen" is not possible with this technology.

    And this technology is used to significantly reduce eye strain and to significantly increase battery life.

  • i love how they are deliberatly withholding a color screen for the kindle 3.....fuckin capitalist bastards!

see all

  • @WeThrowPie Well welcome to the 21st century! Everything is in pdf now days

  • @jamesbrownintown : no one reads fucking pdf.

  • reading is boring :)

  • @WeThrowPie the pdf support is poor, do you enjoy reading tiny print? you can't even zoom in or bookmark where you left off, it's shitty and I suggest people boycott this product unless it upgrades with pdf freindly support or let this product dry up and die

  • @jamesbrownintown : they read pdfs, nitwit.

    lol, you're ignorant of what it can do and basing your entire opinion on something you're WRONG about.

  • @WeThrowPie ipad? "your life is filled with overzealous adhd ipad morons?" You would not have said that if you would have watched my "worst products of the decade video" which includes apple's shitty headphones. So no, Kindle has recently made a good move with the newer version and lower price, but it's still shit because it neglects pdf support again. I can't wait until someone with billions of dollars is smart enough to invest in a PDF ebook reader, I'll gladly pay $100 bucks for that

  • @jamesbrownintown : only you dont know anyone who has made the purchase, because your life is filled with overzealous adhd ipad morons. You people are fucking simpletons. You wouldn't understand the concept of a book if I were to hit you with one in the head.

  • @charleslaine well, we all know charleslaine needs to mature, lets guess his age...11?

  • @WeThrowPie First off, mind my name, I'm not black so that phrase doesn't really affect me other than show what an ignorant dumb redneck you are. Anyway sticking to the topic, The kindle is an over priced piece of shit! Everyone I know that has made the purchase regrets it, these corporate scum bags need to heed to the advice of working out the native pdf issue. Do redneck's read?

  • @jamesbrownintown : it doesnt 'look cheap' at all. It looks like printed paper. Get a clue, nigger.
