Kindle: Amazon’s New Wireless Reading Device

Written by admin on June 23rd, 2008

Launched in November, the Amazon Kindle is an electronic book reader. A convenient, portable reading device with the ability to wirelessly download books, blogs, magazines, and newspapers. 

This amazing device features electronic paper, a revolutionary new display technology that makes reading Kindle’s screen  as sharp and natural as reading ink on paper—and nothing like the strain and glare of a computer screen. Kindle is also easy on the fingertips. It never becomes hot and is designed for ambidextrous use so both “lefties” and “righties” can read comfortably at any angle for long periods of time.

In additon, it is completely mobile and simple to use for everyone and it is wireless. No PC and no syncing needed. Using the same 3G network as advanced cell phones, content is delivered using the wireless delivery system, Amazon Whispernet. Unlike WiFi, you’ll never need to locate a hotspot. There are no confusing service plans, yearly contracts, or monthly wireless bills—they take care of the hassles so you can just read.

With Whispernet, you can be anywhere, think of a book, and get it in one minute. Similarly, your content automatically comes to you, wherever you are. Newspaper subscriptions are delivered wirelessly each morning. Most magazines arrive before they hit newsstands.  Kindle delivers your spontaneous reading choices on demand.

Kindle’s paperback size and expandable memory let you travel light with your library. With the freedom to download what you want, when you want,  you’ll never again find yourself stuck without a great read.
