About Amazon Kindle (1st Generation)

  • Download books without Wi-Fi.

    The first generation Kindle eReader features 3G wireless connectivity so you're always connected to your library so long as it has service.

  • Store books online and download when you want them.

    Online storage means you never have to worry about running out of space on your Kindle. You can always re-download a book without losing your place.

  • Take advantage of easy controls.

    Big buttons on both sides of the Kindle make it easy to change the page with either hand as you read your books.

  • Enjoy long battery life.

    The Kindle's electronic ink display doesn't require power to display a page, only to change one. This means the battery lasts much longer than on LCD devices.
