Amazon Kindle

15.24 cm (6 ") , 167ppi, 191g, 4GB, USB, 802.11b/g/n, Black <b>Kindle is designed as a dedicated e-reader. Indulge your love of reading without interruptions such as e-mail alerts and push notifications.</b>

<b>Touchscreen display</b>
New — A touchscreen interface makes it easier to use features such as X-Ray, built-in dictionary, highlighting and more. And with a glare-free screen that looks like real paper, you can read as easily in bright sunlight as in your living room.

<b>Lighter than a paperback</b>
Kindle is lighter than most paperback books, making it easy and comfortable to hold in one hand for extended periods of time.

<b>Weeks-long battery life</b>
Kindle does not require power to maintain a page of text, allowing you to read for weeks on a single charge.

<b>Easy on the eyes</b>
Every time your eyes switch from a bright screen to a dimmer, ambient room, your eyes have to adjust, which may result in fatigue. With Kindle, the page is the same brightness as everything else in the room, so no adjustment is needed.

<b>Reads like the printed page</b>
Kindle uses actual ink particles and proprietary, hand-built fonts to create crisp text similar to what you see in a physical book. The blacks and whites on the screen are uniform, improving image quality.

<b>Sharp, dark text</b>
Enjoy text that reads like the printed page. All fonts have been hand-tuned at the pixel level for maximum readability and comfort.

<b>Flip through without losing your place</b>
With Page Flip, you can skim page-by-page, scan by chapter or skip to the end for a sneak peek without losing your place.

<b>Take and share notes</b>
Add margin notes that you can edit, delete or even export from your device to your computer. Share highlighted sections and meaningful quotes on Facebook and Twitter, and see passages frequently highlighted by other Kindle readers.

<b>Read comfortably in one hand</b>
Lighter than most paperback books, hold Kindle comfortably in one hand for long reading sessions.

<b>No distractions</b>
Kindle is purposely designed as a dedicated e-reader. Indulge your love of reading without interruptions such as e-mail alerts or push notifications.

<b>Look it up instantly</b>
Smart Lookup integrates entries from The New Oxford English Dictionary with information from X-Ray and Wikipedia, so you can access definitions, characters, settings and more without leaving your page or losing your place.

<b>Expanded X-Ray for books</b>
X-Ray lets you explore the “Bones of the Book.” See all the passages across a book that mention relevant ideas, fictional characters, historical figures, places, or topics of interest. X-Ray's new timeline view (coming soon) lets readers flip through important passages easily to remind themselves of what's happened in the book, or navigate easily through images.

<b>Squeeze in that last chapter</b>

<b>Fewer distractions, more reading</b>

They can read thousands of books for free, including classics such as Treasure Island. And they can easily take their books with them without loading up a heavy backpack.
