| The one I use. Now it's called 'Kindle Keyboard 3G' |
1. NO DISTRACTIONS
I mean no touch screen. Only physical key board (who can stand that?). Only one thing you can do at one time - is read a book. (Sigh)
In a world where we need constant distraction and frequent updates - this device lets you down in a bad way. And you know what? screen is just plain grey (No color screen !). Good thing is, the screen looks great in outdoors. No glare. Just like reading a paperback. And how to brag infront of a crowd - a grey screen loaded with good books in it?
2. IT COSTS $ 69
Seriously? When iPAD just cost you $399 or more, and great android devices are just around $200, who in sane mind would want to buy this rudimentary piece? $ 69 is way too high price tag.
3. YOU CAN CARRY 1000 BOOKS WITH YOU.
This is the craziest part. 1000 books? And it can hold your PDF's too. I mean your entire life of PDF's. Can you find people nowadays who are reading at all? Mind you, reading books eats in to your precious time on TV, youtube, gaming, social media etc. And reading books is a bad habit when your life is designed to follow the pack.
4. YOU CAN DOWNLOAD A SAMPLE BEFORE BUYING A BOOK.
So finally, here's the catch. You can download first chapter of books for FREE !
And don't watch this video.If you are still tempted after reading these 4 reasons and the video, I will call that 'it's your fate'. Go ahead and try your luck. If you do, love to hear from you.

Not convincing enough. Gotta stick with my Kindle. :P
Btw, I think the $69 version isn't available in SL. Only the $89 one (w/o special offers).
Ah really? So do you have the ' Keyboard 3G'? Do you know anyone around us using this $69 kindle?
Nope, the $89 one. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0051QVESA/ref=fs_tq
It's just the $69 one w/o special offers.
Me and Gihan have it. Was $109 without special offers one year back.
Yes, Gihan convinced me also to buy the same. Been using it for almost 2 years. Worthy worthy investment :)
