Many attempts were made in the previous decades to make our reading experience better and faster, but all these had failed. It was the Amazon, an online bookstore that first made a big difference in our reading experience and habits by launching a reading device, known as the Kindle e-book reader. This e-book reader has some unique features that can be used to get content for reading in a manner which was not known earlier.
The Kindle e-book reader from Amazon is portable, very simple, and can also be used very easily by its users. It is also capable of downloading books, blogs, magazines and newspapers effortlessly. While earlier we had to turn the pages of a book for reading, the same can be achieved by a mere push of a button in these sleek and handy electronic readers. This reader can be taken anywhere and has the facility of carrying a large library of books. In fact, the Kindle has enough memory to carry as many as 1500 e-books, which means you have your entire library of books with you no matter where you are. It can also be effortlessly connected through the wireless network with your online bookshop A single charge keeps the device going for 4 days at a stretch and goes up to 2 weeks with the wireless feature turned off.
There is no need for the Kindle reader to be connected with the computer for downloading media like the other available devices. Moreover, it has an automatic and smart syncing system. It is also internet ready and uses the Amazon's Whispernet service through the 3G system. This characteristic feature is available along with the reader, and therefore those who use it, need not worry themselves about the monthly wireless service plans, payment of bills etc.
The Whispernet wireless service of Amazon has a delivery system which can be used by the readers to acquire any e-book that is available in the library in a very short time. However, this facility is only available to users from the United States, but is likely to be made available to users all over the world. Users from USA can easily download and peruse the first few pages of a book for free before making up their minds to buy the book.
The external looks of the portable reader are just as sleek as their capabilities are. The reader has a clear black and white screen that gives it an impression of a fine paper with quality print. It also has a high-tech virtual ink that gives the feeling of reading of material in real paper. Reading in bright sunlight too is the least troublesome as there is absolutely no glare. The screen also remains cool, which means you can read for hours on end without straining your eyes the least bit.
Moreover, the Whispernet feature applies the optimized technology of the Amazon as well as the Sprint's High Speed (EVDO) information wireless network that enables its users to effectively search and download any content and also surf the internet, whenever and any time you want. If you thought the latest generation Kindle 2 from Amazon has all that you ever have wanted out of your electronic reader, think again. For hot on the heels of launching the Kindle 2, Amazon has also launched the Kindle DX that is even more feature laden and makes for a smart reading experience.
