Does anyone use this product to download and read Kindle books? If so, do you use the Win * or Android piece?

I find the screen is too wide to read a novel comfortably while docked. You could pop out the tablet from the dock and read vertically, but after awhile it becomes a bit heavy. Where I do use the Kindle app on the Android OS is with recipes. The presentation is crisp and the images render beautifully. Because tablet mode is Android only, you won't be able to use the Windows version of the Kindle app.

Hello. No, the Kindle and Nook App are not pre-loaded onto this Tablet. If they are available through GooglePlay then you should be able to download them. Thank you

Hi Lauraine: You have to download the Kindle Reader for Blackberry from Crackberry or a similar site. Search for it online and download it. Then, you have to "sideload" the app on your Blackberry using the "DDPB" app for Windows. That is also possible to find through Crackberry and other sources online. When you follow the sideloading instructions from Crackberry, and install the app via "DDPB", it will add the Reader into the Android apps list in the Blackberry Playbook. When you launch the Kindle Reader for Blackberry you can follow the prompts and add your Blackberry to the list of Kindle Readers on Amazon's "Manage My Kindle" options. At that point, you can sync the reader app and it will download all of your books if you choose them from the archives. I had only one book that would not download. It was "Slaying the Badger" a book about Tour de France winner Greg LeMond. I tried repeatedly and it will not download for some reason. Every other book worked perfectly. Good Luck.

Im not very good at tech. stuff . so if someone could walk me through it I would appreciate it very much.

I can't speak for the Kindle but it does not work with my Asus tablet (Win 8.1 touch). It will work with an Android smartphone, which was for my initial purchase.

It looks like Barnes and Noble created an application to download for that purpose, to read Nook books on Android tablets and smartphone. I'd suggest reading their FAQ page in regards to this before proceeding.

Dear Xavi,Thank you for your reply. Since my last message I have purchased the Kindle 3 as I was concerned about the difficulty of buying and downloading books within the UK. I am so far very happy with the Kindle although I am very interested in what you think of the Nook. I have relatives in the US who are considering buying an e-reader and so I would love to know what your opinion is. If you get the chance to give me some feedback once you've used it that would be great!Thank you.Sincerely,Michelle

Yes. I actually use the Nook app in the tablet to read my e-books (even though I don't own any B&N; books), reads my EPUB books perfectly and I like its internal (i.e. not online) dictionary. I think it has the Kindle app pre-installed but I haven't used it.

Thanks, R. Jenkins! I've been trying to figure out how to get Kindle for Android on this tablet too, but was having no luck at all....until your posting above. It worked GREAT and now I have it downloaded and I'm finally able to start reading the book I've been dying to get...yippee!

Hi! I have one of these, and while I love it (huge screen, great battery life, totally customizable file organization, best markup/annotation capabilities of any E-Ink reader), it can't read Amazon format ebooks (.azw format) and can't be used to access the Amazon ebook store app that comes on Kindles. It does (technically) have wifi capabilities that could be used to get to the amazon mobile site, but the wifi is unreliable at best and sometimes causes the device to crash.

I would say: YES. This is an Android machine, therefore you can download the app: Kindle for Android. Anything you have purchased that is Kindle content, should therefore, I would think, be accessible on this machine.Andrew W.

I have the Zenithink tablet, but I don't know about which e-reader you are asking. Personally, I'm sorry I ever bought the Zenithink tablet. Unlike an iPad, one cannot upgrade the operating system. Thus, many apps downloaded from the PlayStore are not compatible. It's not a bad tablet, but it mostly sits on my coffee table collecting dust because it's a "klunker." Wish I had an iPad or even the new Windows tablet. I can suggest getting on the Android Forum where better tech minds may be able to offer help. If I could, I would send it back for a refund. BTW ... the battery life sucks. Good luck.

I haven't found a way to do that yet. I use the kindle app to read eBooks from Amazon. Actually I haven't found a way to download amazon books at all unless a kindle is involved :(However this Naxa E reader will read .doc, .pdf, .txt files (make sure it isn't a .docx these cannot be read)

If Kindle has an Android App then yes you can, because it has an Android Player. It also has a nice e-reader of its own, with Kobo books. I thoroughly enjoy the app, but at the same time I'm not a heavy reader. Plus there are always work arounds.

Hail'O Sandra ~ Yes, you certainly can....there are some free Android Aps available here on amazon.com that will allow you to access and use the Kindle book files.

yes! it comes with the Kindle reading app installed and books can be downloaded wirelessly from the Amazon Kindle sight. Amazon has a site filled with Android apps from books, games and utility programs. Many are FREE! Easy set up! love my Toshiba tablet!!!!
