Tylee Britton-Havard (tyleebritton) I own a kindle fire. It's amazing. I'm going to an English reading competition this year and i have to read a bunch of classics. It's easy to download and read. I love my kindle fire!!!

Trutze | 5 comments i have one ---i recieved my first and only kindle this Christmas and it is the plain kindle4 wifi version, but i am very happy with it.
Maybe in a distant future I'll get the paperwhite, my mom got it and it looks really nice,but for now i couldn't be happier with what i have :)

Maria (thesnowqueen) I have the Kindle Fire HD, which I got last September. However, I also have the Kindle app on my iPhone 5 and my iPod Touch. I know it might be useless, but when I run out of battery in either device, I could use the other. And when I don't want to bring my Kindle, it's quite good to just have it on my phone. I mean, I don't put every book I have in all my devices - that's where the Cloud comes useful - I just sync the ones I'm currently reading.

Jim (sleeplessjim) | 4 comments I have the basic 5th gen black kindle. I love it for reading indoors, outdoors in any light. I also have a 1st gen kindle fire which I use for multimedia, browsing the web, email and hanging out on Goodreads, and reading beforebed. I barely use my laptop anymore. I love the portability they both provide.


Deborah aka Reading Mom (dsc1105) | 5 comments I am a rare person who has only one Kindle. Mine is the Kindle Keyboard. I love it and can't imagine wanting a different model.


message 56: by Stacey Jo (new)

Stacey Jo (st1ac2ey3) I have a Kindle Keyboard 3rd gen and a Kindle Fire 1st gen. I bought the Fire without having done my research. I didn't realize it didn't have the text-to-speech feature. I don't have a lot of time to sit and read, not as much as I'd like, so when I'm commuting, cleaning house, grocery shopping, doing mindless stuff at the office, I listen to a lot of my books. So I purchased an app on my Fire so I could listen to my ebooks but the app is total crap because it reads punctuation, you can't control the speed of the voice and you can't option between male or female.

So, I use my Keyboard to listen to my books during the day and my Fire to read on in bed at night and when I just need the use of a tablet. My husband uses my Fire when I'm on my laptop and he wants to get on the internet. It's not as good as a computer but it gets him to the websites he wants.

SewingandCaring (washyourhands) Device update. 1 kindle paperwhite, 2 nexus, 1 iPad 3 and a iPhone 5. Devices that can get on the internet in this house count; 7. Seems a bit much but when I break it down all of them are used at least once a day, yes, yes my electricity bill is on the high side.


message 58: by Mike (new)

Mike Levin (britnard) I have a Kindle Touch, Paperwhite, and a Fire

message 61: by sonya (new)

sonya marie madden  | 268 comments I'm thinking of the kindle paperwhite when my kindle keybord breaks down.


message 62: by Billie (new)

Billie | 9 comments You will love it. I also have a kindle keyboard but I find myself using the paperwhite more often since it is smaller & I can read in the dark without a light.


message 63: by Chester (new)

Chester | 29 comments I almost have a Kindle Fire. I gave it to my wife for Christmas and she let's me use it, sometimes.


message 64: by Jennah (new)

Jennah (strawberryblonde) 2, the Kindle basic and the Fire HD Kindle. By the way, the Fire HD Kindle is awesome!


message 65: by James (new)

James Allen (james_allen) | 9 comments I have a Kindle Touch and Paperwhite. The Touch is a good device. The only drawback for me was the tendency to forward more than one page if I held down my finger for a second.

The Paperwhite is better in every department than any eReader I have used.


Mary - Buried Under Romance  (bur2012) | 1 comments Zero...

I read from my ipod touch. But I'm thinking of getting a Kindle. Which ones do you guys recommend?


message 67: by Lara (new)

Lara Zuberi (larazuberi) | 12 comments Kindle fire is amazing and all apple devices can have kindle apps downloaded on them and they auto sync


message 68: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn (7wattbulb) | 1 comments 1 Kindle Fire (mags and how to books)

1 Kindle Second generation (loaner for sharing a good book with friends)

1 Kindle 3rd generation (my primary reading device)

1 Kindle without keyboard but not touch as my keep in my purse kindle.

Of course I also have the Kindle app on my phone & pc and dare I admit to having a Nook Color for Children's books.


message 69: by Pauline (new)

Pauline Harding | 1 comments I only own one Kindle; I must be deprived I think. Its a Kindle Keyboard 3G with wi-fi and I love it and read on it all the time but really keep looking at the Kindle Fire to update some day when it is available to Australians.


message 70: by Santino (new)

Santino (tinoprinzi) | 6 comments I only own one, after all, you can only read one at a time :P


message 71: by Katie (new)

Katie I've owned all of them at one time or another except the very first one! My first eReader was a Sony Reader given to me for my birthday only days before the first Kindle came out. At the moment, I have the Kindle Paperwhite, which I think is just about the perfect eReader except that it is missing audible, and the Touch, which I didn't like much and which I'm close to parting with to send to Len Edgerly's (Kindle Chronicles podcast) Ebooks for Troops non-profit organization. Ebooks for Troops sends used and new Kindles to our troops overseas. I just gave away the first Kindle Fire which I found too clunky to use both in shape and interface (I'm an Apple gal and couldn't get used to the Android platform).


message 72: by Katie (new)

Katie ...oh, not to mention Kindle app on my iPhone and iPad. My Paperwhite is a 3G which is fabulous! As you can tell I'm a big Kindle fan!


message 73: by Vardan (new)

Vardan Partamyan (vardanpartamyan) | 137 comments I am currently profoundly enjoying the kindle touch with the next upgrade to be the paperwhite 3G


message 74: by Viva (new)

Viva | 1 comments I have a kindle paperwhite
it's so nice that can read in the night now
what about the Kindle Touch? really beyond the ipad?


message 75: by Thế Chiến (new)

Thế Chiến Lê (homeplayer87) | 1 comments I have a laptop and a Samsung Galaxy Tablet both installed Amazon Kindle program. I use Samsung Galaxy Tab to read books but I have not much to read. I often borrow books from friends then capture book images to read later. I like science and I need books major in science so much. Could you let me borrow some books to read, by the way.


message 76: by Lara Amber (new)

Lara Amber (laraamber) | 42 comments I own four. My parents now have my old K2 and Kindle Touch. My husband has a K3, and I now have a Kindle PaperWhite. We also have the Kindle app on my husband's iPad.


message 77: by towner77 (new)

towner77 I'm reading with the Kindle Keyboard now for about 16 months. Love it, but I am enticed by the Paperwhite's lighting system. Now that Amazon has acquired Goodreads I'm curious to see how they'll integrate, so I'll most likely wait to upgrade until after the dust settles on this merger. Any thoughts??


message 78: by Betsy (new)

Betsy I actually only have one kindle now since I gave my first one away. Plus I have apps on three other devices. But Amazon thinks I have seven apps, five of them on my tablet.

A couple days ago I tried to load a library loaner to my table but it never showed up. Tried several times, until finally I checked the dropdown list of devices more carefully and it showed five tablet apps for me. So I downloaded the book to Betsy's tablet #5 and it worked fine.

Don't ask me what's going on. When I get a few minutes during a week day I might try calling Amazon.


message 79: by Chris (new)

Chris The Story Reading Ape (chrisgr) I have a Kindle Fire and love it, wish I'd got the HD version though, the Nook I have is HD and less tiring to read with, however the KF allows me to do more online.


message 80: by Marina (last edited Apr 02, 2013 09:50PM) (new)

Marina I just broke my Kindle Keyboard. :( It was a good 2 years. So I'm looking at just getting the basic K4. I also have my iPad but I don't read books on that.


message 81: by Carol (new)

Carol | 1 comments I have 3... the first was the early edition, then when my husband started using it I bought him one of his own. When the Kindle Fire came out, I just "had" to have one of them. The Fire is the one I use the most, but I keep my first one fully charged, just in case. I love my Kindle. One of these days I'm hoping to get the Fire HD.
I'm currently reading "In the Blood" by Steve Robinson. It's a mystery about a genealogist trying to track down missing relatives of a wealthy client. It's pretty good.


message 82: by Alan (new)

Alan | 6 comments I have three kindles, two ipads and four kobos. I need my Kobo because Kindle can't be used for public libraries in Canada. I gave my first kindle to my partner and he loved it, then he fell on it and it
had to be replaced. At the time it was the only 3g available for Canada so we had to get him a touch and then they came out with a new 3g for Canada. i have a 3rd generation kindle but recently I got a paperwhite one. I thought I would love the touch feature but I miss the buttons on the side. I find it easier to just click the button on the side then using the touch because with the touch you have to take your hand off the device.


message 83: by Agnes (new)

Agnes  (silkchapters) I have the Kindle 1 in my bedroom; and the Kindle Fire in my living room....will be purchasing the Kindle Paperwhite to carry around with me...cant have enough Kindles....I also sometimes read through my cell phone and also on my computer....


message 84: by Vicki (new)

Vicki Hinze (vickihinze) I own 2 but have bought 6 or maybe 7. Kids and grans.

But I'm finding I like the Kindle app on my iPad best for reading right now. No idea why, to be honest. I've loved my Kindles. Maybe it's a phase.


message 85: by JKR (new)

JKR (jkimberlyr) | 8 comments I have just received the Kindle Paperwhite, I love it.


message 86: by Velia (last edited May 17, 2013 11:06PM) (new)

Velia (veliaf) | 24 comments I have two devices.

My first ereader was the Touch. I still use it because it's the eink one and is small enough to carry in a purse. She's named Sara (after my GPS program's voice chick).

Fire HD 8.9 for the beautiful color and screen size. I use it to read mainly children's books, graphic novels...well now it's my primary ereader. She's named Anastasia (after Anastasia Romanov) or nicknamed Asia.

I'm willing to add to the family, but it depends on what comes out. I'm picky.


✿ ♥  Heather ♥ ✿ (frangiegal) | 4 comments I've had the Kindle Paperwhite for a month now - love it - used to just have a generic EReader and my iPhone with either iBooks or Kindle App

jun (jun224) | 1 comments I have only paperwhite wifi and that's enough.


message 89: by Lawrence (new)

Lawrence | 7 comments I have the Kindle Fire HD.


Cayden (aka Cade)  | 2 comments One for now but I'd like to get the new paper white.


Jackie - Fire & Ice Book Reviews (jackiefireicebookreviews) I have the fire HD.


message 92: by Lavada (new)

Lavada (kraftyvada) | 17 comments I have 2. a basic and a touch I got off eBay. I love my basic the best. its light and easy to use. But I also like audio books and couldn't do that on my basic or tablet with kindle app. due to price I didn't want fire. so found out the touches had the voice. its not as good as a regular audio book, but now I can listen. and with syncing I can read and listen to same book.


message 93: by Sabrina (last edited Feb 20, 2014 03:55AM) (new)

Sabrina Kidd (brinarkidd) | 1 comments I am excited to be part of a group of Kindle owners/lovers! I have four Kindle's. My first one was the DX graphite. It is the biggest one and my favorite for reading. Then I got a Kindle Fire as a gift and a Paperwhite that my husband uses to read. Of course when the new Kindle Fire HDX came out I had to have one! It is awesome! I still use them all and love them all! Also have an app on my laptop. Amazon makes owning them worth it by how well they stand behind their product and will make right any problem that may arise with the Kindle! Mine have titles rather than names. (Such as Kindle Fire Blessing etc...)


message 94: by Maikku (new)

Maikku | 2 comments I have the new Kindle paperwhite.


message 95: by Allen (new)

Allen (jarday) | 3 comments ...we have accumulated too many Kindle devices over the years. Still in working order, I have a Kindle 2 (Albina), Kindle Keyboard (Kelsier), Kindle mini (Cithrin), Paper White (Gwyn) and Paper White 2 (Lisbeth). I also have a Kindle Fire (Zunzuncito). My son has a Paper White, Kindle Fire (first Gen) and Fire HDX


message 96: by Ann (new)

Ann Schwader (annkschwader) | 64 comments Two. A Kindle 2, still in great working order, & a Kindle Fire HD (first edition). I prefer the Kindle 2 for most long-term straight text reading, but love the Fire for nonfiction with illos or charts, & for my BBC History magazine subscription.


message 97: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kayjenx) | 4 comments Can't remember if I posted in here already but... I have a kindle app on my android phone (rarely use it). I have a Kindle Keyboard (my first Kindle). I don't use it as much now since I got my paperwhite but my husband and nine year old son use it occasionally. I don't mind this because I have my other kindle and I don't need to give that up for them to use. I had a Kindle Fire HD first gen but it gave me a lot of problems, Amazon replaced it twice. The second time I just sold it and didn't even open the box. I got the paperwhite after that.
