Kindle Book Lending

Well, it finally arrived.  Similar to the Nook, you can now lend Kindle books to others.  There are some caveats though.

  • Not all books are lendable, it depends on the publisher.  Looking around, very few actually are.
  • The lend is for 14 days, and the user has 7 days to accept the lend.
  • You cannot read the book while it is on load.  If you haven’t connected to the network with your kindle, you can still read it (we tested it).
  • You can return the book prior to the 14 days.
  • It can only be initiated from a US customer.
