Advanced Design Sleek & Trim At
10.2 ounces, Kindle is lighter than a typical paperback and as thin as
most magazines. Barely a third of an inch in profile, you'll find
Kindle fits perfectly in your hands. Improved Ergonomics Kindle
is as easy to hold and use as a book. We designed it with long-form
reading in mind. When reading for long periods of time, people
naturally shift positions and often like to read with one hand.
Kindle's page-turning buttons are located on both sides, allowing you
to read and turn pages comfortably with one hand from any position. The
page-turn buttons now flex inward to prevent any accidental page turns
when picking up or handling Kindle. New 5-way Controller Kindle
has a new easy-to-use 5-way controller, enabling precise on-screen
navigation for selecting text to highlight or looking up words. Simple to Use, No Computer Required Kindle is completely wireless and ready to use right out of the box--no setup, no cables, no computer required. Even Longer Battery Life 25% Longer Battery Life--Read for Days Without Recharging With
Kindle's 25% longer battery life, you can read on a single charge for
up to 4 days with wireless on. Turn wireless off and read for up to 2
weeks. Battery life will vary based on wireless usage, such as shopping
the Kindle Store and downloading content. In low coverage areas or in
1xRTT only coverage, wireless usage will consume battery power more
quickly. Charge via USB Kindle supports
wall charging via the included Kindle power adapter, and charging from
your computer via the included USB 2.0 cable. Kindle fully charges in
approximately 4 hours. Wireless Access with Whispernet Fast 3G Network--Get Books in Under 60 Seconds Whispernet
utilizes Amazon's optimized technology plus Sprint's national
high-speed (3G) data network to enable you to wirelessly search,
discover, and download content on the go. Your books and periodicals
are delivered via Whispernet in less than 60 seconds. And
unlike WiFi, you never have to hunt for a hotspot. Download times can
vary based on wireless coverage strength and file size. Expanded National Coverage We
expanded Kindle's national coverage to include more cities and areas in
all 50 states, enabling wireless downloads of books, newspapers,
magazines, and blogs. No Wireless Bills No
monthly wireless bills, data plans, or commitments. Amazon pays for
Kindle's wireless connectivity so you won't see a wireless bill. There
is no wireless setup--you are ready to shop, purchase and read right
out of the box. Carry Your Library in 10.2 Ounces Holds Over 1,500 Books The
ultimate travel companion, Kindle weighs 10.2 ounces and holds more
than 1,500 books. No longer pick and choose which books fit in your
carry-on. Now you can always have your entire library with you. Automatic Library Backup: Re-download Your Books for Free Books
you purchase from the Kindle Store are backed up online in your Kindle
book library at Amazon.com. You can wirelessly re-download books
available in your library for free. This allows you to make room for
new titles on your Kindle. We even back up your last page read and
annotations. Enhanced Reading Lose Yourself in Your Reading The
most elegant feature of a physical book is that it disappears while
you're reading. Immersed in the author's world and ideas, you don't
notice a book's glue, the stitching, or ink. Our top design objective
was to make Kindle disappear--just like a physical book--so you can get
lost in your reading, not the technology. Paper-like Screen Utilizing the latest in electronic-ink
display technology, Kindle provides a crisp black-and-white 6" screen
with the same appearance and readability of printed paper. Sharp and
natural with no glare or backlight, reading on Kindle is nothing like
reading from a computer screen. Those who see it for the first time
always do a double-take. The screen works using ink, just like books
and newspapers, but displays the ink particles electronically. And
unlike a laptop or smart phone, Kindle never gets warm so you can
comfortably read as long as you like. Sharper Display of Images and Photos
Kindle's high-resolution screen now boasts 16 shades of gray, so images and photos are sharper and clearer than ever. Read in Sunlight with No Glare Kindle's
screen reflects light like ordinary paper and uses no backlighting,
eliminating the glare associated with other electronic displays. As a
result, Kindle can be read as easily in bright sunlight as in your
living room. Adjustable Text Size Because
one size doesn't fit all, you can increase the text size of your
favorite book or periodical with the push of a button. If your eyes
tire, simply increase the font size and continue reading comfortably.
Kindle has six adjustable font sizes to suit your reading preference.
Now every book in your library can be large print. Read-to-Me Feature With
the new text-to-speech feature, Kindle can read every newspaper,
magazine, blog and book out loud to you, unless the book's rights
holder made the feature unavailable. You can switch back and forth
between reading and listening, and your spot is automatically saved.
Pages automatically turn while the content is being read, so you can
listen hands-free. You can choose from both male and female voices
which can be sped up or slowed down to suit your preference. In the
middle of a great book or article but have to jump in the car? Simply
turn on Text-to-Speech and listen on the go. Improved Newspaper Experience Using
Kindle's new 5-way controller, you can quickly flip between articles,
making it faster and easier to browse and read the morning paper. Want
to remember the newspaper or magazine article you just read? Clip and
save entire articles for later reading with a single click. Faster Page Turns Pages now turn 20% faster on average. Bookmarks and Annotations By
using the QWERTY keyboard, you can add annotations to text, just like
you might write in the margins of a book. And because it is digital,
you can edit, delete, and export your notes. Using the new 5-way
controller, you can highlight and clip key passages and bookmark pages
for future use. You'll never need to bookmark your last place in the
book, because Kindle remembers for you and always opens to the last
page you read. Full Image Zoom Images and photos display crisply on Kindle and can be zoomed to the full size of the screen. Personal Document Service Via Whispernet Kindle
makes it easy to take your personal documents with you, eliminating the
need to print. Each Kindle has a unique and customizable e-mail
address. You can set your unique email address on your Manage Your Kindlepage. This allows you and your approved contacts to e-mail Word, PDF
documents, and pictures wirelessly to your Kindle for a small fee. Kindle supports wireless delivery of unprotected Microsoft Word, PDF, HTML, TXT, RTF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, PRC and MOBI files.
In addition to the existing experimental support of PDF, you can also
send DOCX files for conversion. Some complex PDF and DOCX files might
not format correctly on your Kindle.
If you would like to download your personal documents for free, or if
you are not in a wireless area, you can send attachments to
"name"@free.kindle.com to be converted and e-mailed to your computer at
the e-mail address associated with your Amazon.com account login. You
can then transfer the document to your Kindle using your USB
connection. For example, if your Kindle email address is
Jay@Kindle.com, send your attachments to Jay@free.kindle.com.
Built-in Dictionary with Instant Lookup Never get caught without a dictionary. Kindle includes The New Oxford American Dictionary
with over 250,000 entries and definitions, so you can seamlessly look
up the definitions of words without interrupting your reading. Come
across a word you don't know? Simply move the cursor to it and the
definition will automatically display at the bottom of the screen.
Never fear a sesquipedalian word again--simply look it up and keep
reading. Wireless Access to Wikipedia Kindle
also includes free built-in access to the world's most exhaustive and
up-to-date encyclopedia--Wikipedia.org. With Kindle in hand, looking up
people, places, events, and more has never been easier. It gives whole
new meaning to the phrase walking encyclopedia. Search Kindle
makes it easy to search within a book, across your library, in the
Kindle Store, or even the Web. To use the Search feature, simply type
in a word or phrase you're looking for, and Kindle finds every instance
in your book or across your Kindle library. Looking for the first
reference of a character in your book? Simply type in the name and
search. You can extend your search to the Kindle Store to find related
titles you may be interested in. Explore even further by searching
Wikipedia and the Web. Audiobooks With Kindle, you are able to download and enjoy more than 50,000 audio titles from Audible.com, including bestselling audio books, radio programs, audio newspapers,
and magazines. Due to their file size, audiobooks are downloaded to
your PC over your existing Internet connection and then transferred to
Kindle using the included USB 2.0 cable. Listen via Kindle's speakers
or plug in your headphones for private listening. Own an iPhone? The iPhone is a perfect companion for your Kindle. To read Kindle books on your iPhone or iPod touch, simply download our
application free Kindle for iPhone . Our new Whispersync technology saves and synchronizes your
reading location across your Kindle(s) and your iPhone. Now you can
read a few pages on your iPhone and pick up right where you left off
when you return to your Kindle. Experimental Features The experimental
category represents features we are still working on to enhance the
Kindle experience even further. Try them out and let us know what you
think. Read-to-Me With the new
text-to-speech feature, Kindle can read every newspaper, magazine, blog
and book out loud to you, unless the book's rights holder made the
feature unavailable. You can switch back and forth between reading and
listening, and your spot is automatically saved. Pages automatically
turn while the content is being read, so you can listen hands-free. You
can choose from both male and female voices which can be sped up or
slowed down to suit your preference. In the middle of a great book or
article but have to jump in the car? Simply turn on Text-to-Speech and
listen on the go. Basic Web Browser Kindle's
Basic Web browser works well to read simple, text-centric Web sites
such as Google and Wikipedia. Need to find a movie listing or look up a
sports score? Now it's easier than ever to find the information you're
looking for right from your Kindle. PDF Document Conversion You
can email your PDF documents wirelessly to your Kindle, just like other
personal documents. Due to PDF's fixed layout format, some complex PDF
files may not format correctly on your Kindle. Listen to Music & Podcasts Transfer
MP3 files to Kindle to play as background music while you read. You can
quickly and easily transfer MP3 files via USB by connecting Kindle to
your computer. Included in The Box Kindle
electronic reader, power adapter, and USB 2.0 cable (for connection to
the Kindle power adapter or optionally to connect to a PC or Macintosh
computer). |
