i have had my kindle for about a month now. i waited till now to write a review so that i would have a chance to get used to the kindle and find anything that troubles me. i must say that i am very satisfied with kindle.it works exactly as advertised.it is easy to read, and once i got used to the click and “flash” of page turning, i find it easy to get lost in my reading as i can with a print book. way better than reading on a laptop! i like that i can download new books from anywhere at anytime.( i download a bunch of samples with my laptop and when i like one, i order it from my kindle). i also like that i can have books e-mailed direct to the kindle from my favorite publisher. the only things that are less than ideal for me are that it is a little thin and slick for me to feel like i am holding it securely without squeezing it tightly.( i have very calloused fingers and arthritis)not a huge problem. i also wish it had a clock on it! as i said, i tend to get lost in my reading, and it would be nice to have a small clock down in the corner to refer to. once again, not a huge problem. battery life is very good, especially with the wireless turned off- at least 2 weeks of reading a couple hours a day or more. i also bought the mighty brite lite, and it also works. not quite as satisfied with it. have to aim it from the side to prevent glare on the display, and the clamp wont hold it when turned on its side ( the kindle- like when reading in bed laying on my side) that said, it does a good job of giving me light to read by, and its battery life is also very good- after a month of reading with for 30 min or so most every night, im still on my first set of batteries! all in all, i feel i made the right choice when i bought a kindle, and i looked at just about every other e-book reader out there before i decided on the kindle

GREAT DEAL. I BOUGHT 4 OF THESE FOR LESS THAN THE PRICE OF ONE AT ANY STORE YOU COULD WALK INTO.

I absolutely agree with the previous review about the keys being sharp. Sharp to the point where they aren’t very convenient to carry around. The lock itself is great…but…had I heeded the other review, I would have purchased a different brand lock.

What can you say about a memory card? This thing does what it says it will do, store electronic data. I purchased it for use in a Panasonic high resolution digital camera. It stores the pictures without running out of memory. Then camera battery runs low before the card runs low of space. I believe the camera battery is capable of approximately 300 pictures, while the memory card can store about 400 pictures.

Second time I used it (3rd tank of solution), the plastic part that locks the machine in an upright position broke off. Hard to believe such a rinky design would make it to production. Now, the machine has to be propped up against a wall if I am not holding it, to keep the arm from falling on the floor, spilling solution.
Cleaning was probably okay for this class of machine, of which this is the only example I have used. Certain not up to the cleaning of machines I used to rent from the grocery or hardware store.
UPDATE:
Got the machine back from repair (one month). They claimed that everything is new, except the two liquid containers. Well, the brushes were obviously not new, don’t know whether they were mine (only used for 3 tanks) or not.
Turned on the machine; within 5 seconds became very loud. I found, under the small black plastic panel with holes on the bottom underneath the cleaner, there was a metal clip of some sort, and 8-10 small pieces of broken grey plastic. Removed those, ran it again for 5 seconds (VERY loud), and there was then a screw visible under the panel.
I think they gave me a badly repaired steamvac from someone else, not a new unit as claimed. Another black mark for Hoover.
simple to use and effective. A well made product very quite in operation. Instructions could be improved,once you figure CycleOps Fluid 2 Indoor Bicycle Trainer out it is very easy to install and use .I liked it so well I purchased another for my wife.
