    This Kindle is great. Customer service rep for technical questions---not so much.

    I got it to store all my college books without checking to see if they would even be compatible. They weren't. It's my fault for not checking this. The three star rating is because you can buy a good tablet for less and use the kindle app. Which is what I did. I can now read my books and have a fully functional tablet.

    300 dpi screen is impressive. The only drawback is the front-lit is not even.
