Wikipedia accepts KINDLE as a verb and links to UrbanDictionary definition
Original Kindle, from WIKIPEDIA:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Kindle#External_links
Some Kindle users are now using the word "kindle" as a verb as in "Are you kindling?" or "I am kindling now and will call you back in one hour" or "I love to kindle on my Kindle now." The editors at UrbanDictionary have accepted the word as a verb now, since it is in common usage on the blogosphere. The defintion reads: "To read a book or a newspaper on a Kindle e-reading device."
The Kindle
Upon the initial launch of the Kindle, Amazon's Kindle Store had more than 88,000 digital titles available for download, with the number of titles steadily increasing.[6][7] Amazon's first offering of Kindle sold out in five and a half hours[8] and the device remained out of stock until late April 2008.[9]
The Kindle device retailed for $399; Amazon subsequently lowered the price to $359. Amazon does not sell the Kindle outside the United States as Whispernet only works in the U.S.[10] Plans for a launch in the UK and other European countries are being delayed by problems with signing up suitable cellular operators.[11]
The internal memory of the Amazon Kindle can hold approximately 200 non-illustrated titles.[10]
Reviews of Kindle have been generally favorable, although a reviewer from CNET expressed concern with the presentation of the device despite its ergonomic appeal.[12]
