It make my travel load a lot lighter :D (the first time I moved back home from the states I had to ship out three crates of books).<br />And I never used the wifi on it once.<br />What I usually do is I download the Kindle book in a file onto my computer, plug in my Kindle, and move the book from one folder to the other. Done. I mostly do this because I am lazy to turn the wifi on on the Kindle, and also because I download dozens of Kindle books from archive.org, and they don't transfer via wifi :) (archove.org is a goldmine, by the way).<br />Cheers!<br /><br />@TarkabarkaHolgy from<br /><a href="http://multicoloreddiary.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Multicolored Diary</a> - Tales of colors<br /><a href="http://hungarykum.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">MopDog</a> - The crazy thing about Hungarians...A Tarkabarka Hölgyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06719668142192116685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-18707600342728238842014-04-13T04:43:14.475-07:002014-04-13T04:43:14.475-07:00I have a Kindle Fire, and I love it.

I downloaded the kindle onto my Ipad and still have a whole library of books that I just don't get to. I so much more prefer to hold a good paperback book in my hands.
