I have a Kindle Fire, which may be different from other Kindles. I don't know where I found it, but I have a program on my computer that allows me to right-click a file and select "send to Kindle" - it sends stuff to my Kindle Fire through the "Amazon Cloud." I've tried it with Word and PDF files, and it works perfectly.

I uploaded some files through the "Manage Your Kindle" page at the Amazon Website, and a popup suggested that I download the "send to Kindle" utility. It works like a charm.

I did use my Kindle as a crutch for words for one song last night. I found the song and opened it, and then turned off the Kindle. It came back to the same page when I turned the Kindle back on again. I would advise singers to use tablets with discretion, if at all. They could be a real annoyance. Still, have to say that I just don't have the ability to remember lyrics. If I restricted myself to songs I've memorized, my repertoire would be limited to church hymns and songs I learned as a kid. I'll sing gospel at singarounds because it's fun, but I won't sing hymns....and people DO get testy if I sing "The Hole in the Bottom of the Sea" too often.
