The Amazon kindle was made for every avid reader, no matter what the age group. From students to retirees, including celebrities like Oprah, it has quickly established itself as a favorite gadget of many readers. It looks good when it's not in use and even greater when it is. One of it's less noted but certainly most interesting attributes is the quality of the display. The text and images are to the eyes what music is to the ears. The Kindle will rightly 'kindle' reading in people. The Amazon Kindle line is renowned for their breakthrough technology so the outstanding display of the Kindle 2 comes as no surprise. That's also where the rubber hits the road in that as far as reading is concerned and Amazon is well aware of this. Behind what appears on the screen is some very ingenious engineering and science which emulates the natural appearance and readability of the paper print culminating in the thoroughly paper-like display of the Kindle 2 today. At the heart of the Kindle display is the Electronic Ink Digital Display technology. This is the main reason why readers are able to read for a long time without eye strain or tiredness. The screen itself does not heat up either since there's no backlight. As a result, the display of this e-reader is absolutely non-glaring. The text can be changed over a range of six font sizes so everything essentially can be in large print if the reader so desires. This is a huge plus with those readers who are dependent on bi-focal or reading glasses. There is also the facility of having the Kindle read to you when your eyes are tired but you still want to hear the story. Although the first Kindle already had a pretty formidable display, Amazon never stopped working on their trademark cutting-edge technology. That's basically how and why the Kindle 2 is able to boast an even crisper paper-like screen. Resolution, shade scale and image stability have all been greatly enhanced. In technical terms we find that the display is now powered by a 16-level gray scale with 167 pixels per inch resolution at 250 millisecond refresh rate upon electronic ink bubble and film technology. All this is much easier on the eyes, thus ensuring that readers will use it to the fullest potential. The Kindle 2 is drastically different in appearance from it's predecessor which was somewhat quirky and sci-fi looking. The conservative and no-nonsense style makes the reader come across as smart but yet doesn't steal the limelight from it's contents be they books or periodicals. The screen is appropriately located with emphasis on ergonomics and functionality rather than looks thus continuing the philosophy of being 'lost in your reading, not in the technology'. Derived from a joint technology of Physics, Chemistry and Electronics working in unison, the Amazon Kindle display is a godsend for hardcore readers. Above all the benefits and convenience that it delivers, it has the wellbeing of your eyes in mind. You will never wear out your eyes with a Kindle. Whether you are a book lover, tech geek or gadget freak, you will love your Kindle and the super display and so will your eyes and that's a great guarantee.Anything that eases the eyes but allows tou to keep reading is always welcome.
