Getting the Most Out of Your Electronic Book and Best Books Reader
You will find people who both love and hate the Kindle DX electronic book reader. However it’s really dependent on your own needs and because of this what may cause some users grief may actually work in your personal favor. Don’t take poor reviews at face value, read them carefully and find out exactly what the user is having a problem with.
There are some easy shortcuts you can take with your Kindle that will make the experience easier and perhaps more user friendly for you. For starters rather than exiting your books, just turn the device off and it’ll automatically save where you were up to. When you power up again it’ll reappear exactly where you left off and allow you to continue reading.
It is very easy to carry around and won’t break your back or take up all the space in your bag. It’s much smaller than a laptop and will be a million times lighter than a pile of books. One thing you can do on every version of Kindle is access the time.
This can be important as it’s easy to lose yourself in a book and forget to check. On an original Kindle you simply press ALT and T together and the time will come up along with the date. There’s a specific button on Kindle 2 and DX which makes it even easier.
If you’ve got the Kindle 2 or later the audio book function has to be one of the best new inclusions. It’s very easy to activate too. You can even choose the sex of your reader.
There are a few shortcut keys to make note of and learn to make the process easier long-term. These are as follows and are specific to the Kindle DX:
ALT+B will bookmark similar to PC
ALT+F will go forward
ALT+SPACE allows you to run music also
SPACE stops any audio that is playing.
SHIFT +SYM this is the one touch way to start audio book.
ALT+SHIFT+G allows you to get a screen shot.
ALT+SHIFT+M lets you play installed game, Minesweeper and using the G will get you Gomuku.
Finally, ALT+SHIFT+O lets you save pictures to set as a screen saver.
