Designed to provide an exceptional reading experience, Kindle utilizes electronic paper technology. Reading Kindle's screen is as sharp and natural as reading ink on paper--and nothing like the strain and glare of a computer screen.
We wanted Kindle to be completely mobile and simple to use for everyone, so we made it wireless. Kindle Keyboard allows you to connect your device over a Wi-Fi network, and Kindle Keyboard 3G allows you the choice of connecting either via Free 3G or Wi-Fi. There are no confusing service plans, yearly contracts, or monthly wireless bills.
Kindle Battery Life
With Kindle Keyboard's long battery life, you can read your Kindle device for up to 10 days with wireless on. Turn wireless off and read for up to two months. Battery life will vary based on wireless usage, such as shopping the Kindle Store and downloading content.
Your Kindle's Clock
To quickly check the time while reading press the "Menu" button to display the time at the top of the screen.
Once your Kindle Keyboard has been registered, you can change the time on the clock:
- From the Home screen, press the "Menu" button.
- Select "Settings" and turn to the second page of Settings.
- Use the 5-way controller to choose "set" (Kindle Keyboard models) or "set manually" (Kindle Keyboard 3G models) next to the "Device Time" setting.
- Use the 5-way controller to adjust the hour, minutes, and a.m./p.m. settings.
- Navigate to "save" and press to select.
