Amazon paperless e-Book reader Kindle (video)

Welcome to Kindle e-book reader, Amazon new wireless device that lets you read books, magazine, newspaper and blogs anywhere, anytime. Let's take a look at what it is like to read with Kindle. I'll find it, buy your favorite book, magazines, newspapers and blogs. And I'll point out some unique features too. OK here goes:

Kindle is about the same size as your typical paperback. And lighter than many, weighing in at just 10.3 ounces. The screen is easy on your eyes because Kindle uses and electronic display eliminates the kind of eye strains that you would get when reading a PC or a PDA. And the display doesn't use backlighting so just like paper, it is easy to read outside in a sunny day as it is inside your living room or your office.

You turn pages by a simple touch of a page-turn button, and because buttons are on both sides you can use either hand. Simply touch the next page button when you are ready to move forward, or the previous page button to go back. Use the select wheel when you want to choose an item on the page or menu. For example, when you want to pick a new book to read, use your thumb to roll the cursor up or down, and then press the select wheel to make your selection. If you need larger letters, change the size of the text by pressing the text key on the keyboard. There are 6 font sizes to choose from. Use whatever works for you, big or small.

And if you ever lose your place in a book, you will appreciate that Kindle automatically saves your place in everything you are reading, so you can always pick up from where you let off. You can also bookmark pages and return later, just scroll up to the top of the page and press the dog ear at the corner.

Press the SEARCH key, use the keyboard to type the word into the search field and select GO. Kindle shows you everywhere that word appears.
