Amazon Kindle Touch review

The full-blown tablet demand have weaken the e-readers share in the market as tablet steals some readers who prefer practical features rather than a dedicated e-book reader. Accordingly, Kindle Fire may have certain notion that its e-ink brothers would be nearing its extinction, however instead the largest e-tailer clear that its Kindle e-book readers will remain in the market. With Amazon’s range of Kindles with Kindle 4 and Kindle Touch, along with Kindle Keyboard or the re-branded Kindle 3, it’s obvious that Amazon is eying to dominate the chart for standalone e-book reader. And today, we’ll be featuring the reviews of Kindle Touch, Amazon’s entry on touchscreen e-ink devices which has been already crowded with Barnes & Noble’s Nook, Kobo and Sony. If you’ll be asking why Amazon have just entered it touchscreen e-ink, according to the company, it was “waiting to get touch right.” So the big question right now, is the wait for this device worthy or not? Can it dethrone Nook Simple Touch as the best dedicated e-book reader? We got some reviews after the break, check it out.
