I wish Amazon would hire some competent UX people. I love the screens and hate hate hate hate hate hate hate using their devices. I'll put up with the iPad screen to read at night because the Kindle software works better on it. W. T. F.? I'm waiting for an e-ink screen with physical page turn buttons, with no other UI than the absolutely bare minimum to read books. I don't want a keyboard, or a web browser, or even a store. Please, just a THING that lets me read. Does such a device exist? Of course, content is king and therefore no single device will ever suffice, which is maddening in its own special way.
- Semaphor 14y agoI agree with nearly everything you say. > I don't want a keyboard, or a web browser, or even a store. It's not the most important point, but I absolutely love that I can finish a book and just go online and buy the next part of a series / a new book. I read a lot so a convenient method to quickly get new stuff is awesome. Also, the dictionary. My English is quite okay but many fantasy novels use archaic words I've never heard of before. Without a built-in dictionary I'd have to get the meaning purely from context.
