I love my Kindle. I've talked about this before in my quest for the perfect ebook reader:

我爱我的Kindle。 在寻求完美的电子书阅读器之前，我已经谈论过这一点：

• 2006: Sony Reader and Amazon Kindle - Will eBooks happen this time?

  2006年： Sony Reader和Amazon Kindle-这次会发生电子书吗？

• 2008: Amazon Kindle

  2008年：亚马逊Kindle

• 2009: A year with an Amazon Kindle (and new Kindle Cases)

  2009年：使用Amazon Kindle(和新的Kindle保护套)的一年

• Late 2009: Amazon Kindle vs. Amazon Kindle DX - The Final Word

  2009年末： Amazon Kindle vs. Amazon Kindle DX-最后的决定

It's always come down to this. If you want to read PDFs, get a Kindle DX. The screen is larger and it's just better for 8.5x11 or A4 documents. The Kindle 2 is for novels and the DX is for documents. At least, until now.

它总是归结于此。 如果您想阅读PDF，请获取Kindle DX。 屏幕更大，刚好适合8.5x11或A4文档。 Kindle 2用于小说，而DX用于文档。 至少直到现在。

Today the situation just got a little blurrier. My Kindle 2 has been firmware version 2.0.3 for a while now. However, soon you'll get 2.3 pushed to you over wireless, or you can go get it yourself manually if, like me, you can't wait.

今天的情况变得有些模糊。 我的Kindle 2固件版本为2.0.3已有一段时间了。 但是，很快您就会通过无线方式将2.3推送给您，或者，如果像我这样迫不及待，可以手动手动获取它。

Manually installing is trivial. Download the update, copy it to the root of your Kindle 2 via USB, go to Settings and hit Update Kindle. It'll take about 5-10 minutes.

手动安装很简单。 下载更新，通过USB将其复制到Kindle 2的根目录，转到“设置”，然后单击“更新Kindle”。 大约需要5-10分钟。

Not only does the Kindle 2 get a built-in PDF reader, you also get longer battery life. How? Well, I love my Kindle, truly, but it's true that if the 3G radio is on and you forget about it, you'll find a dead Kindle in a few days, usually just before a trip. Nothing more embarrassing than telling the dude in the airline seat next to you that "my book has a dead battery." ;)

Kindle 2不仅具有内置的PDF阅读器，而且电池寿命更长。 怎么样？ 好吧，我真的很喜欢我的Kindle，但是的确，如果打开3G收音机而忘记了它，那么几天后，通常是在旅行之前，您会发现Kindle没电了。 没有什么比告诉您旁边飞机座位上的家伙“我的书已经没电了”更尴尬的了。 ;)

The new firmware is smarter about when it turns the radio on and they say: "You can now read for up to 1 week on a single charge with wireless on. Turn wireless off and read for up to 2 weeks." I have yet to test this, but I can say that with the radio off, yes, it'll be on standby for a week or two, easy.

新固件在打开无线电时会更聪明，他们说： “现在，只要打开无线电源，一次充电即可阅读长达1周。关闭无线，阅读长达2周。” 我尚未对此进行测试，但是我可以说，关闭收音机后，可以轻松待机一两个星期。

You can also manually rotate the Kindle 2 screen, previously a DX-only feature.

您还可以手动旋转Kindle 2屏幕，该屏幕以前是仅DX功能。

Here's how things look on the Kindle 2 with a PDF using the older firmware, then using the new 2.3 firmware. The first PDF I'm using for A-B testing is "Producing Open Source Software" from http://www.producingoss.com. I also use the free ASP.NET MVC chapter from http://tinyurl.com/aspnetmvc.

这是使用旧固件，然后使用新2.3固件的带有PDF的Kindle 2的外观。 我用于AB测试的第一个PDF是http://www.productionoss.com上的“生产开源软件”。 我还使用来自http://tinyurl.com/aspnetmvc的免费ASP.NET MVC章节。

Now, a pile of screenshots because there's no other way to get the point across. Forgive me.

现在，有大量的屏幕截图，因为没有其他方法可以说明这一点。 原谅我。

NOTE: You can click any of these images to get the FULL 800x600 resolution screenshot directly from my Kindle 2.

注意：您可以单击任何这些图像直接从我的Kindle 2获取FULL 800x600分辨率的屏幕截图。

Most importantly, is Code readable? Well, yes and no. It's readable, but it's not comfortable. It depends on the code and on the way the PDF is formatted. In the Wrox PDF example, the code was formatted kind of gray, which doesn't help given the Kindle screen. The important thing to note is that PDF formatting and fonts appear to be respected 100%. If it's clear and readable on your PC, it'll at least be readable on the Kindle, assuming the limitations of the screen hardware.

最重要的是，代码可读吗？ 好吧，是的，不是。 可读，但不舒服。 这取决于代码和PDF格式化的方式。 在Wrox PDF示例中，代码的格式为灰色，这在Kindle屏幕上无济于事。 需要注意的重要一点是，PDF格式和字体似乎受到了100％的尊重。 如果您的PC上的内容清晰易读，则假定屏幕硬件存在局限性，至少可以在Kindle上读取。

Note that when you rotate the screen (with the font button) that you can see the layout and text more clearly, but you'll only see the top or bottom half of the page. When you hit Prev/Next Page you'll move up and down the page before you actually turn a page. It's not perfect, but it's something.

请注意，旋转屏幕(使用字体按钮)时，您可以更清楚地看到布局和文本，但是您只会看到页面的上半部分或下半部分。 当您单击上一页/下一页时，您将在实际翻页之前在该页面上上下移动。 这不是完美的，但是是某种东西。

Conclusion

结论

For a standard A4 or 8.5x11" page, it's not really easy to read on a 3.6 in (91 mm) × 4.8 in screen. Expect to read PDFs rotated.

对于标准A4或8.5x11“页面，要在3.6英寸(91毫米)×4.8英寸的屏幕上阅读并不容易。希望阅读旋转的PDF。

Your Kindle 2 just got a new lease on life. This is totally new, free functionality for your Kindle 2. It's now a competent PDF reader. If you're a coder or a PDF reader, be thrilled. Now go get it.

您的Kindle 2有了新的生命。 这是Kindle 2的全新免费功能。它现在是一款功能强大的PDF阅读器。 如果您是编码员或PDF阅读器，一定会感到兴奋。 现在去得到它。
