Kindle lighted cases – perfect for dim days and dark nights

Tuesday, March 29th, 2011

Looking at the Kindle, the eInk technology is so impressive that it’s sometimes easy to forget that you’re not actually reading from a piece of paper – albeit one that’s shaped like a large, thin calculator.  One of the advantages of the traditional book is that if dropped or bumped it generally won’t suffer much damage other than some minor scuffing or bent pages, but the same can’t be really said for the beautifully-crafted Kindle.

What that means is that, as with every expensive piece of gadgetry, protection is paramount!  Luckily there are lots of Kindle covers on the market to keep your Reader tucked up safe, so wherever you are – whether you’re tucked up too, or out and about in the great wild world – you’ll have peace of mind.

My favourites are the Kindle cases which also feature a built-in light, giving you some illumination when using the Reader in dim light.  Whilst the official Amazon Kindle Lighted Leather Cover will set you back by a hefty chunk of cash, our alternative faux-leather case clocks in at a much more reasonable price.

You won’t lose out on function or protection either: the Kindle case itself is fashioned from durable faux-leather, giving it a stylish and professional appearance.  It’s held shut by a sturdy strap, for extra security, and a soft grey microsuede interior prevents scrapes and scratches.  The specially-designed Kindle light is easily stored when not in use in a light pocket situated behind the Kindle, which is positioned so as not to interfere with the device’s usability.  It features a powerful LED light bulb, so there’s easily enough illumination to see the eReader’s screen without straining your eyes.

I also like the Kindle Gift Pack, which makes an ideal present for bookworms (Mother’s Day, anyone?) and contains all the extras you need for your Kindle in one:

• Book-style case with faux-leather exterior, internal padding & interior microfibres
• Alternative silicone Kindle skin for when you don’t require as much protection
• Five Kindle screen protectors
• Kindle reading light for those dim days and dark nights
• In-car Kindle charger for power wherever you are

Kindle Gift Pack Is Greatest Value For Money

Monday, March 14th, 2011

Of all the Amazon Kindle Accessories to emerge recently, this Kindle Gift pack has to be the best value for money. It is no mere make-weight, for those waiting to buy a ‘proper’ kindle case, it is in fact everything you’ll need from day one of ownership.  See what our customers think about this pack in these kindle reviews.

All of the above included in one great value pack.

So what is included?

1. A book style case.

2. A silicone soft cover.

3. Five screen protectors.

4. A reading light.

5. A car charger.

1. A book style kindle cover made of leather effect material with a soft micro-fibre lining to keep the kindle safe from accidents, dust and scratches. This kindle case on it’s own justifies the price of the pack as a whole but it is a quality item in it’s own right.

Book Style with Soft Lining

2. For the times when a case is overkill, and for when you need something more grippy, we include a silicone kindle cover that just slips over the kindle and is form hugging and soft.

For times when you need more grip.

The cover still allows access to the important buttons and charging port, whilst protecting every other part except the screen.

3. A set of five Kindle screen protectors should be enough for all but the most accident prone person, in keeping the screen free from scratches.

Not one but five screen protectors are included.

When one protector is damaged simply replace it with a fresh one.

4. With no in-built back  light you may struggle to read the screen in low light, say when you are on an aeroplane or in bed, and you don’t want to disturb your partner by keeping the main lights on. This pack has a clip on Kindle light that will illuminate all of the screen and as it has a flexible neck it can be positioned wherever you please.

Can be clipped onto the case, the kindle or wherever you like.

5. Incredibly there is still more to this pack. For times when you are away from home the pack includes a Kindle Charger for the car. It is a micro usb one, and so it will work with many modern phones too as that is the standard many are conforming to.

A Kindle Car Charger for those occasions when you are off the grid.

All I want for Christmas is…. a tablet device. But which tablet to choose?

Thursday, December 16th, 2010

So you want to splash out on a nice hunk of gadgetry for that special person in your life this Christmas – or perhaps you want to convince that lucky, lucky person to splash out on you.  But which tablet device is right for you?

Although they may look similar at first glance – large-screened, flat, enticingly shiny – there’s actually a huge range of different tablet devices available on the market at the moment, with a range of functions.  Here’s a quick guide to help you work out what you need and how to get it.

Apple iPad

We’ll start with the big one – you’ve all heard of it.  With a screen of 9.7 inches, the iPad is the biggest tablet around and makes a great device for coffee tables and train journeys.  Thousands of handy apps make it easy to tailor the iPad to your needs, and it’s perfect for surfing the net, watching movies and video clips and playing games.

Downsides are that the iPad has no camera component – though it’s expected that one will be included in the next version – and no phone component, so you can’t use it for phone or video calls.  It’s also got no support for Adobe Flash, which can be exasperating if using Flash-based sites.  And, whilst it’s got a huge range of books available for download, the screen is a little bright and the device a little heavy for reading for any length of time.

Amazon Kindle

For bookworms, then, the Kindle makes a far better choice for a reading session. This dedicated e-reader is currently the number one best-seller on Amazon, and is racking up thousands of orders in time for Christmas.  Unlike the iPad, the Kindle uses innovative e-ink to make reading it exactly like reading from a book, ensuring that you don’t hurt your eyes.  At 6”, it’s small enough and weighs little enough (less than a paperback) to hold comfortably for long periods.  And with the 3G version now available, you can download books wherever you are.

Downsides are that this e-reader is just that – an e-reader.  Don’t expect any bells or whistles from this one-trick pony, but this is the perfect gift for literary types and costs a lot less than a full tablet device.

Samsung Galaxy Tab

Biggest competitor to the iPad so far (watch this space)!  The Galaxy Tab is smaller than the iPad, at just 7 inches, but it’s about half the weight – meaning you won’t have to contend with arm strain after a lengthy session.  It runs Google’s Android OS, which means that it also supports Adobe Flash, and like the iPad it has a variety of useful apps available (although admittedly not as many as in the iStore), including a Barnes & Noble Nook reader app.

Downsides are that the Tab, like the iPad,  can’t place phone calls – but unlike the iPad, it does come with front and back videos included, making web-based video calls a viable alternative.
