An alternate Kindle Charger

It happened again. I was reading at lunch and realized I had not charged my kindle in quite a while. It died. ARRRGH. So I am at work, no where near the standard charger. The plug on this is not run of the mill, but I have a drawer full […]

Kindle Aftermarket covers finally arrive

So far I have seen little in the way of Kindle specifically created aftermarket items. The woolen cover from Octovo is joined by a leather messenger bag that clearly was not initially designed for the Kindle though looks like it might accommodate it sufficiently. When looking for other product made by the “Octovo” […]

Favorable reviews by those I’ve shown it to

Well I have had it almost a month, the reading slowed over the past week, though I attribute that to the holidays. I went back to work yesterday, I threw my back out over the holidays and noticed I had not brought it with me today at lunch when I went to read. […]

Yahoo kindle group down temporarily?

I am sure not happy that the yahoo group is down but Welcome any newcomers to the kindlechat site. I would imagine it will be back soon as Yahoo is normally very reliable and responsive. Until then, by all means, the more the merrier.

The need for a hard case

What have you found for an aftermarket case for the Kindle. Nada. Bupkis. Amazon really pulled an apple apparently and didn’t let anyone really know when it was coming out, nor that they might like an aftermarket to exist for it. I have a lot of ideas on how a case […]

The Current state of Bible reading on the Kindle

One of the reasons I bought a Kindle was to allow me to carry my Bible with me and read it anywhere. So far it has been a blessing in this regard. Without needing to grab a specific version or carry additional books when I want to read something else the Kindle allows […]

How to fill your Kindle for FREE

Just discovered that manybooks.net now has kindle formated books available. If you have wondered what can I get to try my kindle out with that won’t cost me anything, search no longer. Many (Ha, that’s part of their name) of the books I read when I was younger and would consider great books […]

Day 2 - A possible problem & How many kindles are there?

OK, my kindle has locked up several times now. Up to now I had believed it was my SD card that I took out of my camera and placed in the unit. It worked but for whatever reason my Kindle would quit responding so i would pop the back cover and reset it. […]
