Kindle for Business

Why Is Kindle an Excellent Choice for the Business Reader?

Reduce Printing Costs and Go Digital: Forget about refilling and replacing ink and toner cartridges. With the Personal Documents service, you can read professional documents such as PDFs and Microsoft Word files on your Kindle at your own convenience.

Lighten the Briefcase: Kindle is optimized for reading. Instead of printing out that business plan to read outside of work, send it to your Kindle. Read it on your lunch break in the park or on the airplane on the way to your next client meeting. Best of all, Kindle won't weigh you down or clog up your briefcase.

Stay in the Know: Read business books and subscribe to newspapers, magazines, and blogs that keep you ahead of the competition. Best of all, the content is auto-delivered wirelessly to your Kindle.

Carry and Read Your Professional Documents

KindleImproved, Built-In PDF Reader: Native PDF support allows you to carry and read all of your personal and professional documents on the go. You can send your documents directly to your Kindle and read them anytime, anywhere. Now you can add notes and highlights, use the dictionary look-up, and read password-protected PDFs. You can also magnify PDFs by viewing them in landscape mode, and zoom into any area of a PDF up to 300% and pan to easily view small print and detailed tables and graphics. You also have the option to have your PDF document converted to the Kindle format so that it reflows.

Personal Document Service via Whispernet: Kindle makes it easy to take your personal and professional documents with you. Each Kindle has a unique and customizable e-mail address. This allows you and your approved contacts to send Word, PDF documents, and pictures to your Kindle via Whispernet for a small fee--see details. Kindle supports wireless delivery of unprotected Microsoft Word (DOC, DOCX), PDF, HTML, TXT, RTF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, PRC and MOBI files. Some complex PDF and DOCX files might not format correctly on your Kindle. You can transfer personal documents to your Kindle via USB or using a Wi-Fi connection for free at any time.

Password Protection: With password protection functionality, you can choose to lock your Kindle automatically when you’re not using it.

Other Features for the Business Reader

Massive Selection: Over 950,000 books, including 107 of 111 New York Times Best Sellers, plus audiobooks, periodicals (including the Wall Street Journal and Economist) and blogs.

Buy Once, Read Everywhere with Whispersync: Your Kindle books can be read on your Kindle, iPhone, iPad, PC, Mac, Android device, BlackBerry and Windows Phone 7. Our Whispersync technology syncs your place across devices, so you can pick up where you left off.

Battery Life of Up to One Month: A single charge lasts up to one month with wireless off for Kindle Wi-Fi and Kindle 3G + Wi-Fi. Keep wireless always on and it lasts for up to 3 weeks for Kindle Wi-Fi and up to 10 days for Kindle 3G + Wi-Fi. Battery life will vary based on wireless usage, such as shopping the Kindle Store, web browsing, and downloading content.

Collections: Organize your Kindle library into collections, or categories, to easily access any book or personal document you are looking for. For example, you can create a "Business" collection for easy organization of all your business-related documents. You can also add an item to multiple collections to make organizing and finding titles even easier.

Read in Sunlight with No Glare: The device's screen reflects light like ordinary paper and uses no backlighting, eliminating the glare associated with other electronic displays. As a result, Kindle can be read as easily in bright sunlight as in the board room.

Experimental Feature - New WebKit-Based Browser: The new web browser on Kindle Wi-Fi and Kindle 3G + Wi-Fi is based on WebKit to provide a better web browsing experience. Now it's easier than ever to read corporate webmail and find the information you're looking for right from your Kindle. Experimental web browsing is free to use over Wi-Fi. The experimental web browser is currently not available for some customers outside the U.S.
