Amazon has just released a new Kindle, and they’re offering a 50% discount on it today. So if you’re looking for an e-reader that’s easy to use and can hold your books, the Kindle is definitely worth considering.


The base model Kindle has a 6-inch 167 ppi (pixels per inch) e-ink screen, which mimics the look of ink on paper rather than the LCD or AMOLED screens we usually see on electronics. The battery usually lasts a few weeks on a single charge, like most eReaders, and there’s 8GB of internal storage (which can store thousands of books).
