     "Dont buy this for the kindle" 2010-07-15
    By C. C. Elledge (Chicago, IL)
    I used this book in Spanish class and it was very useful. I wanted to have it available when I was traveling and taking classes abroad, so I bought it for the kindle. My problem is not the book, it is the way it is formatted in Kindle. First of all, the list of verb forms are in EXTREMELY small type even with the largest typeface is set on Kindle. That makes it really hard to look at to study or find a certain verb form. Secondly, there is no way to type in a verb and look it up like you would use the interface with a dictionary. This feature would be really helpful, but alas, it is not there. The only way to access your verb is to look it up via the table of contents and the verbs are not all listed in the same area so you have to keep searching. When doing homework, this is fine when you can span through pages but tabbing in the Kindle makes for extremely frustrating work. It is a real shame that such a powerful tool for the student does not have a more reasonable and well thought out interface. I hope that a few programming changes take place and make this book worth it's usefulness in Kindle. Until that happens, I highly recommend against purchasing this book for Kindle.

     "501 spanish verbs" 2010-07-08

    This book is an essential reference for anyone who is studying Spanish. I have the paper edition on my shelf and use the Kindle edition along with translation dictionaries while traveling. My only problems with the Kindle edition are that the text refers to page numbers making it difficult to optimize its use. Also the book is hard to search effectively. For instance if you want to search for the verb IR you get results for all the instances the text refers to verbs ending in ir.

     "Kindle Version Really Bad!!" 2010-07-05
    By K. Caldwell (Chicago, IL USA)
    Bought this for use in the field. Useless, as uses "locations" instead of page numbers. There are no page numbers on the pages to find your place.

    Additionally, while turning the pages one jumps several pages ahead and must go back to the contents to navigate.

    Absolutely worthless!

     "Problem with Amazon" 2010-07-05
    By GGRuth

    The problem had nothing to do with superbookdeal and everything to do with Amazon.com. Two separate emails from Amazon requested me to send my credit card information twice, resulting in duplicate orders, thus requiring a return of one order at my expense! Furthermore, in communicating with Amazon by phone, I was told by "Stephanie" that superbookdeal would send me a return label, but superbookdeal informed me they do not supply return labels, so that advice was completely false.
