hi every one i would like to buy a kindle for myself and the wife, we both enjoy the same books. so if i buy one will it down load to both if i register to the same user thanks

[grendel]

should do, my kindle purchases went to all 3 of my kindle for pc machines, I think you can tie 4 or 5 to the same account.

from what I can see it will allow any one book to be on 6 different devices at the same time, but the number of kindles on the same account is unlimited.

When I purchase a book it down loads to my Kindle ,tablet and PC sometimes I have to re-sync one or the other to get the book to come up

My Kindle books appear on my own Kindle, on Liz's Kindle, on one we bought for our stepson, on Liz's tablet, on Liz's PC and on her ruddy phone! You just have to register the device once to your original Amazon account and the rest seems to happen automatically. No chance of sneaking in a book without Domestic Management knowing................

  If you got the one with wi-fi tun it off when not in use as it tends to run the battery down pretty quick,Ray        

[newarcher]

right thanks for the tip ray

[Netleyned]

Anything with WiFi and Bluetooth and Satellite Positioning
will eat up the battery.
Best bet is to disable each when not in use.
A bit of a pain maybe but not as painful as a flat batt.

As Ray says, just be sure to turn wireless off when it's not needed. I do this all the time and I only need to charge my Kindle every 2 or 3 weeks. Battery life will, of course, depend on how much the Kindle is used - mine is used about an hour a day.
