Can you run two kindles off the same email account?
My son is a voracious reader and can easily read a book a day. His bookshelf is full and we are seriously thinking about getting him a kindle or a tablet and putting a kindle app on it. I've had a kindle for quite a while now and love it. Question is can we have two kindles with different content on them running off the same email account., I don't want his stuff cluttering up mine and I'm sure he won't want mine on his.
Thanks |

Don't think you could have different content as it would synch up with the whole account...if you and your son are having different content then why not have a separate account?

You can if when you buy a book you choose which Kindle you want it sending to if buying on a PC. If on the Kindle then it should just download to that Kindle. But then it'd show up on other Kindles under the archived content.

When you buy a new book at Amazon website you can choose to which device it will be delivered. And if you buy from the device itself Amazon knows its identity so that should work, too. But you will have access to all books from both readers via archived items. I think, there's no way to hide some book.

Thanks, I have no problem with all the books being in the archive. I just don't want it overwriting the book I'm reading so his book rather than my book shows up when I open the kindle ( or whatever the correct term is).

That won't happen I don't think but if you read the same book and connect to wifi it'll tell you that the book is at another location on another Kindle.
