Shop Anytime, Anywhere
If you have Whispernet on and you select “Shop in Kindle Store” from any menu,
Kindle connects you to a broad offering of reading material including books,
newspapers, blogs, and magazines. You can browse by category or check out the
latest bestsellers, new and noteworthy items, or your personalized recommendations.
You can see details about an item, read customer reviews, and even download free
samples of books you are interested in. If you want to buy an item, Kindle uses secure
Amazon 1-Click and then Whispernet delivers the item to your Kindle generally in
under a minute.
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.
