Okay.

My mom (81 years old) has been a very avid reader ever
since the sun burst into flames. So about once a week
she goes to, yes, the library.
She likes mystery, history and romance.
Decades ago I bought her every Agatha Christie novel
that I thought she had not read. (I missed on a few -
she HAD read them.)

Nonetheless - I think - for either her birthday or
Christmas - I am going to buy her a Kindle.
Being an avid reader as she is - she is the perfect
candidate for one.

Anyone know anything about these cute little beasties?
Any help would be appreciated!

I have two. One that functions as just a library of books and one that is a library of books and a tablet.

I would opt for the Kindle White as it is easier to navigate. You will most likely still need to help her download books if she is not tech savvy.

All Kindles are wifi capable and some have a 3G/4G capability. That one is good for those who do not have internet or wifi.

You can also download books on line via USB.

If you get her one of the Kindle Fire editions, she can download and read books and also download movies and TV programs. Best to get the Amazon Prime membership as this will allow her to read some books for free and get some old movies for free as well.

The Fire editions don't come with a 3G/4G capability from what I know.

Can a tablet function as a Kindle just as well?

An iPad can from what I know.

Just about any tablet can download an eBook, movies, TV shows and surf the net. However with Kindle you have one stop shopping at the Kindle store and free cloud storage as well. Other tablets probably have this as well, but it is made quite easy with Amazon.

One disadvantage is once you go Amazon and download a bunch of books or keep them in cloud, I believe it is impossible to transfer the data to another tablet. However, Kindle does offer Apps for download on lap tops/desk tops, smart phones and other devices where you can access your Kindle data through the App.

Worth exploring.

Amazon Kindles are the most popular brand in the market, but the Barnes & Noble Nook is an attractive alternative.

I believe that there is a Kindle application for Android tablets, as well as an Amazon app.
