Title: new Kindle Textbook format is AWFUL
Review: I have been using Kindle for my textbook for years. I have even recommended that people buy a Kindle for their textbooks. Now Kindle has decided that it would be a good idea to format their text book just like the actual book and make it only assessable from a computer or iPad. THIS IDEA SUCKS!I BOUGHT A KINDLE, I WANT TO USE MY KINDLE AND I WANT TEXT TO SPEECH, ESPECIALLY ON A TEXT BOOK!THE BOOK IS BASICALLY A SCANNED IN VERSION OF THE TEXT, IT LOOKS GREAT BUT I HAVE TO PAN ALL OVER THE PAGE TO READ THE TEXT. I LIKE NORMAL KINDLE TEXT CHOICES MCH BETTER.THE SIZE OF THE FILE IS SO CUMBERSOME THAT KINDLE CANNOT HANDLE IT WELL. ON AVERAGE, THE KINDLE PROGRAM FAILS ON ME 3-10 TIMES DURING A SINGLE READING. THIS HAS NEVER BEEN A PROBLEM BEFORE THESE NEW AND IMPROVED BOOKS.I do not recommend using these books. Buy a hardbound copy.
Is the review positive or negative?
