The latest new products from Amazon are the kindle fire and kindle touch. These are the newest additions to the popular kindle eBook reader family of products. There are some terrific new features with these devices as well as competitive prices. This article will go over some of these new features and how they compare to the old kindle. First I will discuss the new kindle fire. This model has the most features of all of the kindle products. There are two major additions that make this model stand out. First, it is now in full color. Second, it has an easy to use touch screen. These two additions now make it comparable to the nook color which already had these features. The nook color is typically priced at around two hundred and fifty dollars while the kindle fire will be priced at about two hundred dollars. This now makes the Amazon product a better deal and much more competitive against the nook color. Some other features of the fire include built in Wi-Fi and fast web browsing. You can use it to check email as well as use popular apps and games. You can even use it to watch TV shows and movies or play music. The display is seven inches and it weighs 14.6 ounces. The battery life will support 7.5 hours of video playback and it also has 8GB of internal memory. This is enough for many books and games. The other new Amazon product is the kindle touch. This will be sold with and without 3G capabilities. The starting price for this model should be about one hundred dollars, and the 3G model will start at about one hundred and fifty dollars. The major new feature of this model is its new touch screen display. It is still black and white unlike the fire model. Something also new to kindle products is the ability to get books from participating libraries now for free. This can be a great service if your library has this option available to you. The kindle touch will feature a six inch e ink display and it will weigh only 7.8 ounces. In addition to these two new models, Amazon also revised the original model. It will now be for sale starting at around eighty dollars. This will still be black and white with no touch screen. It will be both lighter and smaller than the original though and it is still a great book reader for the person on a budget. The addition of these new models now makes kindle products much more competitive and affordable for the average consumer.
