Your Kindle and Amazon.com

magazines, newspaper subscriptions, and other content you find on the Kindle
Store using a Web browser on your computer. You can also go to the Manage Your
Kindle page on Amazon.com to manage your Kindle account, change or cancel a
subscription, or look up a past Kindle order. If you need help, Kindle Support on
Amazon.com gives you information, e-mail, and phone access to dedicated customer
service representatives.
