This amazing new wireless reader is now thinner, lighter, faster and better than ever before. Weighing in at only 8.7 ounces, it's 15% lighter than a paperback book so you can read tirelessly for hours on end, even using just one hand. Its new sleek design has a 21% smaller body while keeping the same 6" diagonal display size.
Just 1/3" thick, thinner than even a magazine, the Kindle can hold up to 3500 books and documents, which is more than double the capacity of the original version, so you don't have to pick and choose which books to squeeze into your purse or carry-on luggage. You can always have your entire Kindle library with you at all times.
With a new longer-lasting battery life, you can read for up to a month on a single charge as opposed to only hours on a tablet or smart phone, and it never gets hot in your hands. The Kindle fully charges in about 4.5 hours using the included U.S. power adapter. You can also recharge the Kindle from your computer with the use of the USB 2.0 cable that is also included. This is the longest battery life on the market, beating out the iPhone, iPad, BlackBerry, Android, and other devices using back-lit LCD displays.
The new version of Kindle comes with 3G wireless so you can purchase the latest books and magazines over the Internet with no monthly bills or annual contracts. There is no wireless setup, so it's ready to go right out of the box. The built-in 3G connectivity uses the same wireless technology that cell phones use, and Amazon pays for this connectivity for you. This added convenience allows you to download reading materials anytime, anywhere, while on the go, without having to find a Wi-Fi hotspot connection. And with wireless coverage in over 100 countries and territories, the Kindle 3G is a perfect option for travelers.
Kindle's new high-contrast E Ink Pearl technology features a 50% greater contrast than previously available, for the clearest text and sharpest images on the market. The screen looks like actual paper, so it's easy to read even in bright sunlight, with no glare.
The Kindle store at Amazon offers over 750,00 of the world's most popular books and over 610,000 of them are priced at $9.99 or less, including 79 of the newest New York Times bestsellers. You can even download and read the first chapters of a book for free before you decide to buy. You'll also have access to thousands of out-of-copyright classic books for free -- old favorites like Treasure Island, Gulliver's Travels, Pride & Prejudice, and The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, to name just a few.
You can read leading magazines like Time, Newsweek and The New Yorker, and newspapers such as The Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, USA Today and The New York Times, even before they hit the newsstands. And you can also access more than 9,000 blogs and read PDFs and personal documents on your Kindle.
At a suggested list price of $189, the Kindle comes in either white or graphite.
The new Kindle 3G wireless reader may very well be the most appreciated gift under your Christmas tree this year!
