How do I convert pdf files onto the kindle.?

I know it has native pdf support, but people say the text is tiny, so i want to convert it anyways.
I downloaded the auto kindle ebook converter.
Can someone please help me?

How can i change the settings on my kindle 2?

Okay I got a kindle 2 for a gift and it came automatically set to the persons amazon account who gave it to me. How can i change this to my own?

My first kindle broke, so I bought a new one. How do I transfer my books to my new one? If I try to buy a book, it tells me I can’t because I haven’t set up an account, but I don’t know how! Help please!

Self-adhesive plastic-coated skins cover the front and back of the Kindle and are custom cut to perfectly fit the Amazon Kindle 2 E-Book Reader. Skins are paper-thin so they do not add any bulk.

  • Non permanent adhesive backing that allows you to simply peel off the skins with no sticky residue
  • Scratch resistant protective shields made out of high-quality vinyl
  • Thin enough to maintain compatibility with most accessories and cases; tough enough to absorb the minor abuse that makes a device look dingy
  • Compatible with Kindle 2 only. NOT for Kindle 1.

I'm very happy with my kindle skin. It took me about 5-10 minutes to place even with me being very specific about centered-ness. I put the back on first since it only had the one piece. I set the skin on the kindle and it stuck sort of like plastic wrap until I placed it exactly and pressed down. It was easy to pick back up and shift. I made two tiny slits at the power button protrusion to make it lay flat (about a mm long). When removing the large skin portion from its shipping sheet I had to poke out two of the letter key cutouts, otherwise I was very impressed with how easy it was to remove from the sheet. The labels on the Home and Back keys, etc., aren't exact, but you can't see the original words through the skin. The skin is thicker than I thought it would be (think of a piece of tin foil folded in half) and is slightly stretchy. I pressed the skin on from the center out and very easily pushed out the one or two bubbles I ended up with. The skin is not sticky but feels slightly rubbery and is very easy to hold.
Perfect!

I love this new decal. It makes my Kindle beautiful and unique. It really was simple to put on (Really!) and I had no problems placing the pieces (back and front) to get a smooth look with no bubbles or wrinkles. It is removable (I repositioned it a bit as I was putting it on to get it exactly right), and I might be inclined to buy another one someday just for a change in design. It will protect from fingerprints and smudges and such, but isn't designed to protect from drops. I use it with the Kindle cover, not as a replacement. It also makes holding the Kindle without the cover a little nicer. Without the decal, the back of the Kindle felt a bit slippery to hold on to, but with the decal I am more secure in not using the cover all the time when reading. I like this product as a dress up accessory and would recommend it to others for that purpose.
Adds a little flava

This design is unique and really makes my kindle stand out from everyone else's. I love how it comes in different models so you can use the same design to pimp out everything else you may own -- laptop, iphone, etc.

The quality is awesome. The decal is a thick material and resilient to slight dings. Also, the stickiness is not overpowering so you can remove and reapply if you can't get it on straight the first time -- this is important for me as I'm a perfectionist. Also, some people mentioned that it was difficult to flatten against the curved edges. This is not a problem, just apply slight pressure and smooth it over the edges.

The best part - is everyone is jealous of how cool my kindle looks. It's one thing to be cool because I have a kindle, it's another to be cool because my kindle's got flava!
Love the skin you're in!

I really like this product. It fits my Kindle 2 perfectly and was VERY easy to put on. It makes the device look nice and helps prevent some of the everyday wear and tear. I am going to get on for my laptop next!
That little extra touch...

What an inexpensive and easy way to personalize your Kindle 2! I absolutely love it! Thought it might be difficult to line it up and place it correctly on the Kindle - wrong! It was simple. The most difficult part was the little buttons (menu, etc.) but this material allows you to take it back off and try again without any problems.

LOVE IT! My Kindle is so pretty - just want to show it off to everyone!

How do i get billed on my amazon kindle?

I need to know how and when i get billed for my kindle books.

I am graduating with a bachelors in one year from now and moving on to law school. During undergrad, I looked into the Kindle (and other similar products) as a possible textbook replacement, but never bought one because there really aren’t any textbooks that come in electronic form. Is this also the case with most law school textbooks?

I like the Amazon kindle, but I heard Sony has them, too. Could someone help me find the best and affordable one?

If better ones come out later, what makes them better than the ones now?

How Many Times can you read a Kindle Book?

I am considering getting a Kindle. I read somewhere that there is a limited # of times an e book can be read on a single device. This is to discourage people from sharing books. Any truth to this? I know they can only be downloaded a certain # of times.
