Kindle Reviews, Videos, FAQs, and Models
Dear Fellow Reader:
Welcome to eReader Reviews and Information.
My name is Adam Bookman. I’ve been an avid reader since 7th grade. I started eReaderReviewsInfo.com as a free resource for others who wish to explore reading on the various Amazon Kindle models and who want to know where to buy a Kindle. These Kindle reviews will likely help you choose the model that best meets your needs and wants.
Here on my website, you’ll find two main resources to help you learn more about the various models and places to buy a Kindle. One main resource is the Kindle Reviews section where I have one review for each of 7 models. The two as-yet-unreleased models are described. The rest are actual Kindle reviews.
Late Breaking News about the Kindle:
Amazon has announced the release of two new models. The Kindle Fire, a color model, is to be released for sale on November 15 and the Kindle Touch on November 21. The Kindle Touch will come in four types. They are:
- Kindle Touch without Special Offers – has Wi-Fi wireless for connectivity; has no ads, so is higher priced
- Kindle Touch with Special Offers – has Wi-Fi wireless for connectivity; has ads, so is lower priced
- Kindle Touch 3G without Special Offers – has both 3G wireless and Wi-Fi wireless; no ads
- Kindle Touch 3G with Special Offers – has both 3G wireless and Wi-Fi wireless; has ads
Depending on your perspective, it’s either nice to have choices or it’s a shame there are so many choices. Reminds me of the TV ad about a person who had trouble deciding when given choices. It comes down to what level of connectivity you have to have and whether or not you can live with ads as the “price you pay” for getting a lower-cost unit.

Another resource you will find on my website is six articles related to where to buy a Kindle. They are some of the most frequently asked questions. Although I do not have them for sale here, I have provided convenient links for you to get one elsewhere. Between the Kindle reviews and the topics about where to buy a Kindle, you should be all set to move forward with a decision and purchase.

Where to Buy a Kindle – Surprised Me!
What places are there to buy a Kindle? It’s not so easy as you might think. I went into an AT & T store at Washington Square Mall, the big one in Tigard, Oregon, a direct suburb of Portland. They had one Kindle on display. One! What? There are many models, for crying out loud. So, about a day later, I looked online for what stores carry Kindles. I gave a staff person a list and had him make calls. Now you would think there are many places to buy a Kindle, wouldn’t you? See this chart of what he found out by making calls for a while:

So, I just wanted to know what places existed to buy a Kindle, but found that frustrating, and this in a big metropolitan area! I think it is just easier to buy online, and if I’m going to do that, then I had might as well buy directly from the maker. See why in the posts in the Interesting Articles on the right sidebar if you like. Or, you might just go on over to the Kindle maker’s web site if you, too, want the easy way with the most options. Not only are there Kindles there, but also loads of eBooks and accessories.
