Amazon has launched Kindle Paperwhite e-reader. This e-book reader can store 1,100 books and boasts a battery life of up to 8 weeks. Besides, it comes with a built-in light that allows you to read
even in the dark. But don’t worry; it is engineered to illuminate the
display from above, instead of projecting light at your eyes, thus
reducing screen fatigue. But best of all, the Paperwhite’s 3G version
promises free wireless connectivity across the country for life so you
can download books on the go. Of course, the device is backed up by the
Kindle store, which offers over 1.7 million books priced in Rupees –
including over 3,25,000 exclusive titles.
