Kindle Overview
The Kindle e-reader is a device that allows users to shop for, download, and read digital media such
as:
• e-books
• newspapers
• magazines
• blogs
Digital media is downloaded directly onto the Kindle via wireless networking and displays information
on the anti-glare screen using the latest e-ink technology—E Ink Pearl. The E Ink Pearl displays clear,
non-backlit text and produces an effect that is very similar to reading on paper. Before using your
Kindle, view the diagram on the next page to familiarize yourself with the buttons on the device.
