  • Abstract:  Chart: Reading is a beautiful and relaxing pastime, but it's not exactly portable, especially if you're a commuter. If you don't like lugging dozens of paperbacks around, why not consider an e-reader? Here are the five best e-readers available in Australi...

  • Amazon's Kindle Touch might have been superceded several weeks ago, but that doesn't mean the model is out of date. If you need a solid e-reader to last you the next five years, and you see one of these babies on eBay cheap, you have our support to buy i...

  • Great price, Crisp, clear screen, Intuitive interface, Great store and software
  • Less elegant, More expensive, Some interface elements not totally touchfriendly
  • There's no doubt that the Kindle Touch 3G is a great device. It's not a question of whether we recommend it or not – we do – but whether it's the right Kindle model for you. For academic use, we recommend the Kindle Touch over its £89 sibling. It's so mu...

  • The touchscreen; design and size; easy to use interface; huge library of books on sale
  • No 3G option (pushed to Kindle Keyboard); slight lag in touchscreen response
  • If you have used the Kindle before, nothing has changed. If you are new, you'll find it easy to use.The Amazon Kindle Touch is a brilliant addition to the Kindle family. With or without the touchscreen, the Kindle is still the number one in its market – t...

  • Slim and light, Good touchscreen response
  • Accidental page turns are quite common
  • The Kindle Touch brings back the fun of flipping pages to an e-book reader. It isn't officially available in India, but Amazon ships it here, and so do websites like ebay Global EasyBuy and Shop Your World. For someone who already has a Kindle, the Tou...

  • Abstract:  If you're an e-ink newbie……then you need to know that the Kindle Touch is a nearly ideal device for reading books. Reading on an e-ink screen is the closest experience to reading on paper you can get on an electronic device. On an e-ink screen, the text l...
