In the past decade or so, there had been many failed attempts at making our reading become smoother and faster. That's until online book retailer Amazon came along and again made the difference in enhancing the reading experience, with a reading device called the Kindle electronic Portable Reader. In deft fashion, its extraordinary features for reading are complemented by its novel way of acquiring the very content.
The Amazon Kindle is a user-friendly and portable reader. It has the capability of downloading blogs, books, newspapers, and magazines. Traditionally, heavy-duty reading meant turning thick pages of paper but nowadays, electronic reading is very different. It is not only mobile but it can also carry your entire library of books and is connected constantly to your bookshop through wireless network.
Unlike other funky devices, the Kindle does not require a personal computer to download its media. Furthermore, syncing is smart and automatic. This electronic book reader is equipped with internet capability through 3G technology on which the Amazon Whispernet service is rendered. This feature comes with the purchase of the reader so users don't have to concern themselves with the wireless service plan, contract, or bills thereafter.
The Amazon Whispernet wireless service is a one-of-a-kind delivery system which enables users to obtain any e-book on its library within a minute. This facility is currently not available outside the US but those who have had a taste of the electronic book reader would know that it's a matter of time that it becomes so. US users can download and sample the beginning pages of books for free before deciding whether to purchase the book or not.
Appearance-wise, this portable reader is as impressive as its capabilities. The crisp black-and-white screen could easily be mistaken for some fine-grade printed paper. The high-tech virtual ink is designed to be just like real ink-on-paper in terms of appearance and readability so much so that there is no backlighting either. Therefore, it would not be difficult to read in bright sunlight and the screen never heats up so you don't have to limit how long you should be reading on that account.
Furthermore, Whispernet makes use of Amazon's optimized technology plus Sprint's national high-speed (EVDO) data network for people to wirelessly search and download content, browse the internet and synch different devices from anywhere anytime. If you think the maiden Kindle Portable eBook Reader rocks, you simply have to check out the hugely improved Kindle 2.
