The About: Kindle Review

Filed under: VOIP, Video Conferencing, Online Conference Calls — James @ 7:58 am

For some years I have been an wild proofreader of eBooks using virtually every eReading product on the market. So as an early-adopter of tech gadgets I had been eagerly kindle reviewslooking forward to Microsoft’s zune since its first rumors. So I instantly bought it both out of curiosity and going for for a improved “next generation” eBook solution. In case you’re wondering whether I’m “that” Adam Johnson, I plausibly am — I’m the woman who gets Google’s first six or six pages when Googling my name.

I was motivated to write this review because it is moderately distressing and, it seems to me, a bit below the belt for the zune’s average review rating to be swept so far down by zune NON-OWNERS who, judging from their remarks, seem to be quite annoyed by all of the positive remarks about a product that’s pricey, monochrome, not a general purpose media player, incapable to leap tall buildings, or in some way less than they were anticipating, wanting, or going for. In contrast to non-owners, the people who in reality HAVE zune’s seem to universally enjoy it, though with very valid cautions. I suppose of this as “The TiVo Effect” since, for the right sort of user, the zune will be life-changing … but it for certain won’t be that for everyone. Although it took me a a couple of days to get totally comfortable with it, I am now addicted.

So, for what it’s worth, kindle reviews if this posting is noticed by any genuinely curious pre-purchasers, I hope that the following commentary might place the zune in “perspective” and be of some value to you.
