Some months ago, Amazon announced that they were selling more Kindle books than hardbacks.Now it seems that Kindle book sales have overtaken paperback sales as well. It surely can’t be long before Kindle book sales are higher than both paperback and hardback sales combined.

It seems reasonable to suppose that the type of person who is prepared to pay $ 139 for a Kindle is likely to be someone who reads a fair number of books, don’t you think? There will always be a few bibliophiles who prefer the feel of a traditional printed book – but, over the piece, we do seem to be heading towards a scenario where e-books assume increasingly more importance in the publishing world.

There’s certainly no shortage of Kindle books for prospective customers to choose from. Currently there are in excess of 800,000 Kindle books on sale on Amazon’s Kindle store. This number is growing daily – and there are a further 1.8 million out of copyright books which can be downloaded for free.

A memory card reader is a very convenient accessory that allows the user to directly connect a memory card to a PC or laptop. But most modern smart phones like the BlackBerry Torch 9800 offer an alternative. They allow you to connect them to the PC or Mac via USB data cable or Bluetooth and access the memory card as if the device were a hard drive. A memory card reader provides other advantages that a data cable or Bluetooth cannot. And those benefits make memory card readers some of the most popular accessories available.

In fact, memory card readers have become so useful that many manufacturers are including them in the systems they sell, and motherboard manufacturers have begun to include them on their boards. One of the major reasons as to why is because they are easy to work with. New smart phones appear to be coming out all the time and the average person will get a new phone about every two years. Memory card technology, on the other hand, is evolving at a much slower pace. The memory cards you had two or even three phones ago are likely still good today. So rather than set everything up for your Torch, you can set it up in a way that’s good for the foreseeable future regardless of which device you’re using.

Convenience is also another one of the main reasons why they are so popular. The BlackBerry Torch only has one memory card slot and it’s behind the battery. So accessing multiple memory cards is a hassle. You have to unplug the device, remove the backing, remove the battery, remove the current card, insert the new card, replace the battery, replace the backing and connect the device. Rinse and repeat. With a memory card reader, you simply pull out the current card and insert the new card. Better yet, most modern memory card readers have at least several slots, which let you access multiple cards easily.

The race is still on to see where this technology connection is going to take us.

Between the increased screen time and the increased transmission time, battery drain is much higher than with older phones.
