Amazon Kindle Keyboard 3G Review

Like the iPhone 4S is merely an update to the insides of the iPhone 4, the Kindle Keyboard 3G is simply an evolution of the Kindle 3G that was released last year. It sports the same physical QWERTY keyboard, 6-inch E Ink screen, and soft-touch finish. In fact, if you have a Kindle 3G, you can upgrade the software and people will think you have the latest Kindle. But it's the features inside that software update--combined with new features Amazon has rolled out over the last year--that make this device newsworthy.Now you can lend books to other Kindle owners, borrow books from your local library, rent textbooks, easily toggle the voice guide feature on and off, and download your archived personal documents on your eReader. Plus, you can use Whispersync to automatically keep your personal documents up to date across devices, and, of course, read books, magazines, and newspapers on the easy-on-the-eyes screen. So how do these features affect our impressions of Amazon's top-of-the-line eReader?Editor's Note: Portions of this review were taken from the Kindle and Kindle 3G reviews.Right down to the graphite paint job and soft-touch back coating, Amazon's Kindle Keyboard 3G looks identical to the Amazon Kindle 3G.
