Best Ebook Reader March 5th, 2009When Dad Loves Reading: The Perfect Gift
How wonderful would it be for your father to be able to carry around all his daily newspapers, his current magazines he enjoys dipping into, a few best-sellers and his work documents?
What?
He does that already? – Carries them around in his HEAVY case?
Okay let’s rephrase the question:
How wonderful would it be for your father to carry all of this around with him in a thin-as-a-pencil, lightweight gizmo instead? How wonderful would it be for your father to be able to read any of these publications, any time he wants? And, to be able to download a new magazine or book within minutes, where ever he happens to be?
It sounds so science fiction, doesn’t it? But it’s not. There’s an Amazon product called The Kindle that does all this, right now.
It’s really light so your father would have no difficulty holding it. It has huge buttons on both sides for turning pages. Your father could read one-handed, and turn pages with the slightest twitch of his finger. If your dad has arthritis in his hand, having The Kindle means he’ll be able to read happily without bringing on more pain.
Does your father find a lot of print too small or fuzzy to read comfortably? He will find The Kindle really easy to read because the print is sharp and crisp. Also, he can change the font size to suit him.
Reading The Kindle is not like reading from a computer screen. Computer screens are lit and they flicker slightly. This is what strains the eyes and makes it hard to read from a computer screen for very long. The screen on The Kindle is not lit. And it doesn’t flicker. Why not? Because it’s made from a remarkable material called electronic ink which makes the screen appear like good quality paper. For a lot of people, reading The Kindle is soothing and enjoyable. Your dad will enjoy that too.
Your dad won’t have to be connected to a PC to download a book or a magazine or a newspaper. His newspaper and magazine subscriptions will automatically be downloaded unto the e-book reader without him doing anything. And to get new books, right there on The Kindle he can go to Amazon, buy the book, download and start reading in minutes.
So there’s an idea for a rather special gift for your father. One you know for sure he’ll get huge amounts of pleasure from, every single day.
