Amazon Kindle 2 for Track & Field and Running Books

If you are like me, you are probably reading 3-4 books concurrently. This is really no big deal. Ever since school, we often took 4 or 5 courses a semester. Our brains can time-slice and multi-task very effectively.

The problem is traveling for an extended period of time. How do you carry all those books?

The Kindle 2: Amazon’s New Wireless Reading Device is the iPod equivalent of books.

The Amazon Kindle 2 is now finally in stock after such a long wait and has already started shipping a day earlier than announced, as Kindle fans are excitedly waiting to use the amazing gadget.

The Kindle 2 is the Amazon’s next generation new wireless reading device which features a slimmer design with longer battery life, faster page turns, more storage, crisper images and new read-to-me feature. It lets you wirelessly shop the Kindle Store, and download new content and read from their library — all without a PC, Wi-Fi hot spot, or syncing.

There’s even an adjustable text and font size for comfortable reading, which is great when you forget your reading glasses. Folks over 40 like me know what I’m talking about!

Kindle 2 users can buy more than 240,000 books from the Kindle Store, along with top U.S. and international magazines and newspapers and subscribe to more than 1200 different blogs.
