A Kindle is a small hand-held electronic device for reading books, which has been developed by online retailer Amazon. Rather as you download an iPod or MP3 player with music, you download books (via wireless technology) onto a Kindle and read them on it. The latest model is Paperwhite, which has a touchscreen.
Launched in early 2012 was the Kindle Fire, and latterly the Kindle Fire HD, with more functionality than previous Kindles and similar to a tablet device, based on an operating system called Android. It has a color screen and offers basic features such as the ability to stream video and music as well as continue to be an e-reader.
You buy these books as Kindle versions of ‘e-books’ from the Amazon website. In addition, you can also download PDFs of any sort of document, which makes this an ideal way of reading for work and study.
Even though the device is extremely lightweight and portable, you can keep a huge number of books on the Kindle. It has a six-inch screen to read from, plus a small keyboard that lets you perform internet searches and other relatively simple web-oriented activities.
Most people use a wifi connection to download books on to their Kindle. However, newer, more expensive models come with 3G mobile phone technology, which makes it possible to download books no matter where you are. With both versions, you can also download books to a PC or Mac and then transfer them to the Kindle via a USB cable.
