Screen contrast photos of Kindle 3 vs Kindle 2, and some photos of web browsing with the WebKit-based Kindle-3 we browser as displayed on the new 'Pearl' e-Ink screen. In the photo at the left, that's my Kindle 2 in its cover. Next to it is the new, smaller Kindle 3 that comes in two models: (1) Free 3G mobile network wireless access as well as WiFi ($189) and (2) WiFi only. ($139). Below are enlargeable photos from a hands-on look at the new Kindle-3's web-browser, with screens in normal and landscape mode (and with manual-rotation expanding the material into the wider screen mode). Includes an example of web browser zoom-in and, after a click on "Article Mode," an example of how that feature ignores the side-column contents. This subgallery is for use with the A Kindle World blog. This isn't a regular "photo gallery," but if interested in the Kindle 3 (or the larger Kindle DX-Graphite), the photos may help. Also, there's an earlier "Kindle 2" gallery with some of my wanderings involving the Kindle, including a Target store where I was able to see the Kindle2 and the Sony PRS-505 side by side, and a bit about a favorite Kindle jacket or cover which holds the Kindle and supports it upright for reading without needing to hold it. *** Click on any image to get the larger version. *** Then you can click on "Next" or "Previous" to see other ones. |
