New generation of book!
Amazon just launched a new reading tools. You pay for the equipment, buy the book online, and read at your convenient. However, you don't have to carry tons of books at a time. Just this one 10.3 ounces e-book. The price for the equipment is still expensive 400$, but it includes the WIFI price anywhere in the US. You still have to pay for your books, though. I am still not sure whether you can read other things not sold on Amazon bookstore or not. At least, you are connected to Wikipedia. You can carry some pictures and e-mail with this AmazonKindle. How much? That's still my question! Anyway, this is the beginning of a new nerd fashion!For more info: Amazon Kindle
What is Amazon Kindle?
Amazon Kindle is a revolutionary portable reader that wirelessly downloads books, newspapers, magazines and blogs to a crisp, high-resolution electronic paper display that looks and reads like real paper, even in bright sunlight.
Kindle customers, no matter where they are in the U.S., can wirelessly shop the Kindle Store and download new content — all without a PC or a WiFi hot spot. Amazon pays for Kindle's wireless connectivity so there are no monthly wireless bills and no service commitments for customers. The Kindle Store contains over 90,000 books that can be purchased and delivered wirelessly to Kindle, each in less than a minute. Customers can choose from hundreds of top newspapers, magazines and blogs and have their subscriptions auto-delivered wirelessly. All New York Times Best Sellers and New Releases are $9.99, unless marked otherwise.
At 10.3 ounces, Kindle is lighter and thinner than a paperback book, carries two hundred books, and includes built-in access to The New Oxford American Dictionary and wireless access to the Earth's biggest encyclopedia, Wikipedia.org.
