Comparing All Amazon Kindles Made Easy

If you have been thinking of getting yourself a Kindle like me, then this is the sort of post you should read. We all know how confusing things can get when it comes to buying something - all of a sudden you are confronted with many versions of the same product; making it even harder to remember which one it was you initially wanted.

The same thing applies to Amazon Kindle. A work colleague bought one that looks very portable and sleek. Being the sort of person I am, I thought I won't need to go through the hassles of checking every device before settling on one. Given that my colleague already has one, it would make sense to get the same.

But things aren't that easy these days where technologies change and move on over night. The Kindle I wanted all of a sudden is now an antique - forcing me to look for something more modern and up to-date. With that in mind I headed to Amazon and browsed around for the latest models. The funny thing was that the more I looked around the more confused I became. Why can't they make things easy for those of us who are not into technology that much. In a way, it looks like they read my mind and decided to make thing easier.

So, seeing how things have improved since the last time I checked, I thought I would post the link here for anyone else who is in need of one of those Shiny Amazon Kindles and would like a details comparison between different model to help you make you choice.

If you find the comparison page useful, please share your thoughts here with other readers.
Good luck!

My Take on sennheiser RS 140 Headphones

Ok, I was not intending on writing a long and details post on Sennheiser RS 140 Headphones - but I thought it won't hurt anyone just to know what I thought having used one recently. If you are anything like me and listen to music alot while working, you will notice that nothing does your head in like surround noise - this could be from colleagues, phones in the office or general chatter in the office.

This is where the sennheiser RS 140 Headphones shines. It is so powerful and designed that is blocks out virtually all external noise, leaving you to enjoy your music without distractions. In fact, the headphone works so well that I'm getting very worried using when alone in the house or office in case of fire. No body wants to disturbed when in the zone listening to that top CD of yours and be hearing some odd irritating office noise as well. That said, it also makes sense not to be totally cut off from the rest of the world.

So, how does one strike the balance? For me, it all depends on environment, mood and choice. You choose where to use these sennheiser RS 140 Headphones - it has to be the right place; then your mood has a part to play when deciding whether or now you want to be left alone and turn your back on the rest of the people around you just to have a moment of peace and quiet to yourself. Of course, it is left for you to choose between being along or still be able to hear the gossips while enjoying your favourite track.

Now, to the feature of the headphone - as you will see from the screencast, it comes in different colours, sizes and cost of course. My favourite is this one with all-black cover suit and silver coat on the outside of the ear cover. And in the middle of the outside ear cover is the awesome company logo.

Apart from that what makes this headphone cool is that it is wireless, making it something of a take-me-everywhere gadget. It has a range of 150ft range, which means that it can easily be used in almost any house I know without worrying about a drop in reception or sound quality. It also comes with its own cute and quirky little charge that looks like a work of art on its own. On the charger, the indicators allow you to know when the included battery is charged. Another feature that's worth a mention is the ability to change the frequency to the channel that works for you. If you have a neighbour with the same headphones, you can tune to their frequency and listen to their music.

But a word of warning as well, because this sennheiser RS 140 Headphones is a wireless device, it is possible for total strangers to listen to your music from the comfort of the car parked outside within 150ft from the main base station. This is something that is common with wireless Internet routers. So, I thought you might like to know that as well.

But don't let that put you off. If you are in search of a great headphone with superb noise reduction and sound isolation, then the sennheiser RS 140 Headphones is the world leader.

Get one today and start enjoying music the way they were meant to be listened to.
