10.3 ounces- 90,000 documents

Amazon’s all new Kindle device allows individuals to access content of over 90,000 books, newspapers, magazines, blogs, and more, at any time, even at times when it doesn’t have access to a Hot Spot or wireless connection! Think of it as a PDA that holds 200 publications for you to read at your earliest convenience, whether it be on the commute to and from work, on your lunch hour, before and after classes, or any other time you read.

For example, a business owner reads the Wall Street Journal every morning, and decides to sign up for a subscription via his new Amazon Kindle. This costs him a mere $9.99 per month. Early in the morning, when that day’s edition of the newspaper is released to stands, it will automatically download to his Amazon Kindle, so that when he’s ready to read it, its available to him. He can also gain immediate access to any business blogs that he keeps up with. New posts are also automatically sent to the Amazon Kindle to read, and subscriptions start at$0.99 per month.

Since some people don’t like reading things from a computer screen, Amazon creating the Kindle to have a “crisp, high-resolution electronic paper display that looks and reads like real paper, even in bright sunlight.” The kindle requires no computer, no laptop, no wireless or Hot Spot access. And since Amazon foots the bill for the wireless connectivity of the device, users have no monthly fees or bills, unless they subscribe to a publication.

Simply search the Kindle store from your personal Kindle in order to find titles that may interest you, all at a price less than purchasing the physical book. New York Times Best Sellers and New Releases can be purchased for a one time price of $9.99, unless otherwise marked.
