It starts when you get your tablet, setting it up and all the first things you do to going into the more "off the grid" things. I haven't finished it yet but look forward to learning even more tricks of the trade with this great tablet. I recommend getting it as soon as you can after getting your Kindle Fire HDX or any of the other Kindle devices. I had the one for the paperwhite too and it was so helpful that this was the first book I bought when I ordered my new tablet.

I've been a fan of the dummy books since they came out. Some I bought are so dog-eared from use, I've thought about replacing them. This one will definitely not be used that much.
It seems I'm either too dumb or too smart for this one in that it seems to spend a lot a time telling me how to download books and/or videos (which I knew already) but nothing about how to show a video on your TV (which I haven't a clue how to do). I pushed the help button in regard to the showing on TV before receiving the book and the helpful lady said if I didn't have a smart TV I'd need a dongel (sp?). I was hopeful the book would have something about dongels and the like, it didn't.
I also tried to see how to create documents on the HDX and couldn't find the app the book told me use. The helpful lady behind the help button explained it was something I'd have to download.
I have a feeling the HDX is so new that the book was written on what was thought was going to be on it. Maybe an updated version of the book will be better.
