Having built their business around a digital storefront that can deliver pretty much all over the world, it seems that Amazon is clearly interested in being able to sell its products in person as well. We’ve seen the company launch physical bookstores where customers can buy books and other Amazon products like Kindles, and now they’re bringing that business model to Whole Foods.
Amazon sells a variety of Kindle models and the new Kindle Oasis is one of them. The e-reader offers good functionality, it’s even waterproof, and it also has support for Audible. If you think that the Kindle Oasis is not something you’d like to spend a lot of money on, don’t worry. According to a new report, Amazon is soon going to add Audible support to its cheapest Kindle e-reader.
Amazon is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its Kindle hardware by offering discounts on existing models. The company released its first Kindle e-reader a decade ago.

Think of Amazon and you might think of the company’s various online services as a retailer. Not only did they sell items online, but they seemed to revel in their digital nature through offerings like the Kindle e-readers and e-books. However that started to change last year when they launched their first physical bookstore.
Amazon isn’t the only company that makes e-readers but its Kindle devices have long dominated the market. Kobo makes similar devices and its latest product has some neat features that haven’t arrived in a Kindle yet. It’s a big e-reader with a 7.8 inch display and it happens to be waterproof. It has that capability despite being thin and light, attributes that are very important particularly in e-readers.
Amazon’s Kindle e-readers are some of the best products money can buy if you’re in the market for an e-reader. It has built a whole ecosystem around that and the latest addition to this ecosystem is a new digital bookmark feature called Page Flip.

A couple of days ago Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos revealed through Twitter that the company will soon be unveiling a top of the line Kindle, but he didn’t provide any details about the product, so there’s a bit of speculation going around regarding the new Kindle that Amazon is going to launch in the near future. A new report suggests that the upcoming Kindle is going to be […]
Amazon is going to launch a new Kindle reader next week. This has been confirmed today by Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos on Twitter. Bezos didn’t provide many details about the new Kindle, he just confirmed that his company will be detailing a new model next week and that it’s going to be “top of the line.” That should be enough to keep Kindle fans interested until the announcement.
Amazon has released an emergency update for its Kindle e-readers. The company warns customers that if they don’t install this update on their Kindle by Tuesday, March 22nd, it will be effectively locked out of the internet. The Kindle will not be able to access the store or sync with the cloud so users won’t be able to download any new books on the e-readers.
