Outside I've tapped the page as many as 30 times before I give up & close it off. It never advances. Then an hour later I open it again & it opens up at the beginning. I do keep it fully charged. I think I'll just go back to paperbacks, less fustrating. LOL.
I have both the old Kindle reader and the new Fire. I like to read outside and use the older one for that and the Fire when I travel so I can do email and check things out. I highly recommend the Kindle family of e-readers!
