Ebook Reader Thread V

[hazeru]

Amazon says you can read PDF files on your Kindle, but I've never personally done it (I find PDF files to be too big).

Built-in PDF reader for Kindle 2nd Generation devices
Your Kindle 2nd Generation device can display PDF documents without losing the formatting of the original file.
Send PDF documents directly to your Kindle device (via your Send-to-Kindle address), or drag and drop PDF files from your computer to your Kindle device via USB.
You can also magnify PDFs by viewing them in landscape mode.

Thanks sis!  That is very helpful . I'll be getting my kindle paperwhite on Monday, so at least may idea na ako how to get the e books.

[simplykristine08]

sa mga bibili ng bagong kindle paperwhite, pano nyo to ioorder at ipapaship sa Pinas from US?

[Heatherette]

^I know a seller so dun ako papabili. Mas mahal kasi aabutin pag ako bumili sa Amazon then ship thru JAC. Ayoko naman i-gamble na straight from Amazon at baka mawala yung package or mataas ipatong na taxes.

[simplykristine08]

^ thanks sis. pano kaya ako, andito ako sa dubai? hindi pwede yung seller na kakilala mo, ano?

pwede kaya ipa USPS ang kindle?

[clueless]

it was my first time to borrow a book from the kindle library.

i was using my husband's amazon account for my kindle kasi US account siya and mine is a PH account. but i am an amazon prime member and pwede sana mag borrow ng books. so tama nga, i can just change the country settings because now i am using my own amazon account for my kindle, change the country setting to US and was able to borrow a book. matagal-tagal din, i did it last night, book is due for return sep 1 and i cannot borrow another one until i return it.

[Heatherette]

^^Hindi ko alam sis paano ang process pag sa ibang bansa na. Di ba nagde-deliver ang Amazon to Dubai?

Nagpa-reserve na ko ng new Kindle Paperwhite. Excited ako dumating siya!

[simplykristine08]

^ hindi sis eh. tinry ko magpre-order tapos dubai shipping address, hindi daw pwede not sure kasi ako kung pwede sa USPS ang kindle. di ko pa rin naman sure kung bibili ako ng bago. pero gusto ko yung masasave yung lahat ng words na hinanap mo para mareview mo next time. and yung pagpunta sa ibang page na mag pop-up lang.

[Heatherette]

^Yung pagpunta ng ibang chapter without losing your current chapter din bumenta sa akin kasi sa Kindle 4 ko kelangan ko pa i-bookmark yung current chapter na binabasa ko para makapunta sa ibang chapter.

[simplykristine08]

^ yan nga sis eh. pati yung tatandaan lahat ng hinanap na words. if magreply ang amazon sakin about sa shipping at ang usps sakin, baka bumili ako. binibenta ko kasi ang old kindle ko eh. hehe. pambili ng new one

[Heatherette]

^Don't worry sis at sa end of Sept. pa naman release ng new Paperwhite

[moonstar_004]

tumawag ako sa customer service ng USPS, pwede daw ipadala ang kindle sakanila! pero ayusin daw ng maayos ang balot and mas okay daw kung may insurance. happy! mabenta ko lang tong paperwhite ko this weekend, order na ko ng new paperwhite

[snowberry]

^^ I was about to meet up and buy the kindle paper white thru a local seller when I read this news about NBS and Kobo .Now , I am having a change of heart kasi parang less hassle if my local partner talaga dito yung company.. What do you think mga sisses?
