Automatic Delivery
Since Kindle connects to the Whispernet network, we deliver your favorite periodicals
over the air to your device as soon as they are published, often before they are even
available in print. For example, if you subscribe to the Kindle edition of The New
York Times, the latest edition is wirelessly delivered overnight so you can read it each
morning. Your favorite periodicals follow you wherever you go in Whispernet’s broad
coverage area, whether you are at home or on the road.
Peruse Your Periodicals
Just as you would thumb through a physical newspaper or magazine to locate an
article of interest, your Kindle supplies you with navigation shortcuts so that you can
quickly zero in on an article of interest. By moving the 5-way controller right or left
you can advance to the next or previous article and pushing the 5-way brings up the
periodical’s section list.
Search Your World
While you are in Home, the Kindle Store, or reading content, you can use your Kindle’s
search feature. From the keyboard, begin typing what you’d like to search for and then
using the 5-way controller, select the range of your search. If you begin your search
while in Home or with open content, you have the option to search for that item in
all of your books, newspapers, blogs, personal documents, and annotations. You
also have the option to focus your search to the built-in dictionary, the Kindle Store,
Wikipedia, and the Web.
Clip Your Favorite Passages
Have you ever been reading a book or a newspaper and wanted to clip and save
a few words to refer to later? With Kindle, simply select “Add a Note or Highlight”
from the menu and use the 5-way to highlight the content you want to clip and then
press the 5-way to save your selection. The clipping is added to a file in Home called
“My Clippings.” You can review your clippings later, search for words or terms you
clipped, and transfer the “My Clippings” file to your computer. This is a great way to
capture your favorite quotations to share with others.
