Kindle Wireless Reading Device Free 3g Wifi Review
Kindle combines a paper-like display (167 dpi
, 4-level grayscale) with a custom, anti-aliased typeface to achieve remarkable readability. Six text sizes are available, from tiny to huge; all are crisp and readable. (The home screen and menus use the now-classic Helvetica typeface in a fixed size.)
Kindle's shell (5.3" x 7.5" x 0.7") is made of impact-absorbing plastic. We've dropped our Kindle quite a few times, with no damage to screen, buttons or any functionality we can discern. (Amazon web page has slow-motion video of Kindle being drop-tested, and you can see the case flex as it absorbs impact forces.)
It's almost impossible to separate discussion of Kindle's software interface from its hardware. Like iPod, the distinction is almost nonsensical the hardware and software are intimately entwined, far more than in a traditional Mac or PC.
The enclosure is uninspiring at first glance it's no Apple product, inspiring instant lust. A slightly off-white shell with odd angles, thicker on the left than the right... our first reaction was to take a message for Amazon: "The 80's Shaper Image called, and they want their design back." But after living with Kindle for a few months, we've learned that every design choice, no matter how strange it seems at first, has a good reason.
The beveled edges make Kindle easy to pick up off a table (like the MacBook Air), while the inward-slanting corners help Kindle rest comfortably in the hand. The page-forward and back buttons lie easily below the thumb, when the Kindle is held in the left hand (as clearly intended in the design).
The rear cover is rubberized for gripping and has Kindle's one real concession to design for design's sake: molded into the cover are a torrent of glyphs pouring from one corner to another, starting with Egyptian heiroglyphics, Norse runes, and Mesopotanian cuneiform, through Hebrew and Arabic script, Greek, and Germanic blackletter, and finally through the past several centuries of Romance letterform evolution. It's a brilliant graphic, expressing the evolution of written language ... and the heights Amazon hopes Kindle will achieve.
