Len Edgerly, host of The Kindle Chronicles podcast, prepared this review after using a new KindleFree 3G +WiFi for three days. Using the Kindle 2 for comparison, he discusses the size and weight of the Kindle 3, as well as speed, screen clarity, WiFi, PDF capability, accessibility, and the missing numbers row on the keyboard. He plans to donate his Amazon review Kindle to EBooksForTroops.org as part of a new project to donate used Kindle 2′s to US soldiers on active duty in Afghanistan. The IRS recently approved the E-Books for Troops 501(c)(3) application, so donations to the nonprofit are now officially tax-deductible. Video Rating: 0 / 5
