The cost of this item seems to limit the equality of access to a small group.

I think that this is a very intelligent and interesting product, i think that it will help many book readers.

That is a very smart idea, this way we can save a lot of trees and protect our environment.
In addition, this way it is easier for the reader to look through articles without having a whole printout of articles and only read 1 or 2 from them.

An interesting product. Kindle is a very innovative thing.

Mariam said...

This will have a huge impact on the environment.

The article is taking about a new item that uses technology very effectively. Amazon created a divice that would store up to 200 books and then you can read it on your own time.
It is a very useful item.

The idea of creating an ebook is very smart, and would appeal to many readers. However it may not benefit the publishing companies and may have several companies protesting against its production. Another issue is also the ability of the ebook to work around the world because as of now it only works in the US.

this idea is good for the society as it helps the people that read alot of books

Tiah said...

This item has good itentions, and could probably generate a lot of good. But the actual price is too high, making it too impractical to be used as an everyday item.

Very interesting product and insightful however I am disappointed that there is no information about when this gadget will hit the market.

Kindle is amazing, I can't wait to get my hands on one. It's easily portable and saves us carrying a lot of books with us during travels.

Lara K said...

This is a very good and intellegent idea. Instead of moving 90,000 books everywhere. You can save it on this portable device which you can easily use.

For Example:
Jassim goes to the Seaport. He needs to bring something to enjoy doing whilst waiting for the ship to come. He brings on of his 90,000books but he decides it's boring and he doesn't want to read it. The announcer says "The Ship would arrive in the harbor in 5 hours time, sorry for the inconvinience". Now if he had this device which stores 90,000 books. He could read until he gets bored.

i think that this would be a very useful product to have and carry around, since books take up a lot of space. This would be good for school. :)

The e-book is a very useful product and would appeal to a number of different users. The product is also very enviromentaly friendly and will help save a lot of trees.
The e-book would epsecialy be useful to students as it would mean that they would have to carry a lot less books.

I believe that Kindle is sucking out all the joy of reading books.

Very smart and inovative idea. The fact that the user can make notes and annotate what is being read will help them to understand what they are analyzing. Convinient but slighty expensive.

anar said...

very interesting..shocking amount can be stored in one device. very affective and convenient

Yousra said...

Although this product includes many useful features, it is till costly and may not be conveniant to all users. Since this product can store to 200 books publishing companies will be affected by this. Moreover it is still a very smart and fresh new idea.

Paola said...

its kind of expensive but its a good tool for reading books, it will really help us to read lots of books in a short time :P
