Introducing Kindle™ Three years ago, we set out to design and build an entirely newclass of device—a convenient, portable reading device with the ability to wirelesslydownload books, blogs, magazines, and newspapers. The result is Amazon Kindle. Wedesigned Kindle to provide an exceptional reading experience. Thanks to electronicpaper, a revolutionary new display technology, you’ll find reading Kindle’s screen is assharp and natural as reading ink on paper—and nothing like the strain and glare of acomputer screen. Kindle is also easy on the fingertips. It never becomes hot, and isdesigned for ambidextrous use so both “lefties” and “righties” can read comfortably atany angle for long periods of time. We wanted Kindle to be completely mobile andsimple to use for everyone, so we made it wireless. No PC and no syncing needed. Usingthe same 3G network as advanced cell phones, we deliver your content using our ownwireless delivery system, Amazon Whispernet. Unlike WiFi, you’ll never need to locate ahotspot. There are no confusing service plans, yearly contracts, or monthly wireless bills—we take care of the hassles so you can just read. With Whispernet, you can beanywhere, think of a book, and get it in one minute. Similarly, your contentautomatically comes to you, wherever you are. Newspaper subscriptions are deliveredwirelessly each morning. Most magazines arrive before they hit newsstands. Haven’tread the book for tomorrow night’s book club? Get it in a minute. Finished your book inthe airport? Download the sequel while you board the plane. Whether you’re in themood for something serious or hilarious, lighthearted or studious, Kindle delivers yourspontaneous reading choices on demand. We’re very proud to introduce Kindle and wehope you enjoy it as much as we do. - The Amazon Kindle Team

Customer Reviews

WONDERFUL

This is not only good for me, but for my children also. The other day my husband anddaughter took much longer than plan doing something. My son and I was sitting outside,because the delay was unplan; I was not prepared for the delay or so I thought. I justturn on the wifi and was able to down load books that my son enjoyed. The pictureswere clean and my son enjoyed the stories. plus some of the books were free.

Books too expensive and most not on Kindle

I bought a Kindle after watching Oprah talk about it on her show. While it is a good ideato have all your books in one small notebook, don't believe the idea that the books are alot less than a print book. The last book I bought was only $2 less than the hardcover.And also, there are many books that are not yet on Kindle, so I still have to purchasethem in hardcover. There are no graphics, but I understand the Kindle 2 has newerfeatures. If I had to do it over again, I would wait until the price is reduced both on theKindle and the books and a lot more books are available on Kindle.

disappointed

This was a gift to me and I was anxious to try it. It reads well but is quite cheaply made,doesn't fit in the cover and has no light. I think that the books are overpricedconsidering that they cannot be passed on or otherwise shared. It hasn't been morethan six weeks and now I'm having battery problems. This might be easier to take if itdidn't cost so much. It's probably worth about half of the $400 it costs. And, to addinsult to injury they have come out with an updated version! I would not recommenduntil it is improved and less costly.iPhone3x.com|Shopping Cart|Home Page
