Summary: Awesome information!
Comment: It's about time someone put something like this out there for us! I've had my Kindle almost since it was released, and I absolutely love it! However, it takes time for people to learn all the tips and tricks and goodies and get the information out to the rest of us! This guy is knowledgeable and willing to share what he's learned. I'm so glad I stumbled across this! More, more, more!!!!

Summary: totally convinced
Comment: I was skeptical at first about a reading device, but I am totally sold on this way of reading. I use it for reading the Wall Street Journal and find it easier to navigate than the hardcopy; I find I like reading on the Kindle easier and more convenient. I can have multiple books in progress, and I never lose my place. I have been converted to the new way of reading.

Summary: How to Use the Amazon Kindle
Comment: Stephen Windwalker makes the mysterious seem friendly and accessible. He greatly expands the usefulness of an already productive and worthwhile tool. I was pleased with my Kindle, but after reading "How to Use the Amazon Kindle", and applying a few of the applications presented therein, I take every opportunity to show it off to strangers.

Summary: 100% Worthwhile Investment
Comment: Like many new Kindle users, I bought this "cool tricks" Kindle book on my first buying spree about 2 months ago. I reserved judgment on how useful it would be until now, giving myself a chance to both read the material and receive the very helpful free emails that the author offers as a bonus, if you choose to send him your email address. The very first tip that came through that I used, a tip on a free download, in one click repaid the cost of the initial "cool tricks" book. High energy author who is motivated to find a position in this new market, and why not? Someone's got to save time for the rest of us, and I appreciate it.

Yes, technically all the information contained therein could be found for free if one had enough time, but if I had that much time and energy, I could also eventually travel to libraries to borrow, and back to return, every time I wanted to read a title for "free". "Free" is not the primary motivation of Kindle users, it's convenience, and personally, I find this "cool tricks" Kindle guide a no-brainer, common sense investment. For a couple of dollars, you get the benefit of this author's many hours of beta-testing. What's to regret?
