Activity Indicator

Appears in the top left corner of your Kindle screen when the device is busy downloading new content, checking for new items, searching for an item, opening a large PDF file, or loading a web page.
Monitoring Download Status
If one or more items are in the process of downloading from the Kindle Store or Archived Items to your Kindle, you can monitor the download progress. From Home, press Menu and select View Downloading Items to display a list of the items that are in the process of downloading and their download progress. (If this option is dimmed, then all items have finished downloading to Home.)
Once downloading is complete, your items automatically appear in Home. If downloading is interrupted for any reason (for example, if you move out of wireless range), your items will automatically resume downloading when your Kindle re-establishes a Whispernet connection.
1.6 Wi-Fi and 3G Connectivity
While youre reading, and for many other activities, your Kindle does not need to connect to Whispernet. A Whispernet connection is required to shop in the Kindle Store. For Kindle models that include free 3G, connectivity to Whispernet is automatic, so if you see one of the 3G network indicators (3G, EDGE, or GPRS) in the upper right corner of your Kindle screen, your Kindle is already connected to Whispernet using 3G. Your Kindle automatically turns 3G coverage off when you connect using Wi-Fi. If you disconnect from a Wi-Fi network or if you move out of Wi-Fi range, Kindle automatically switches back to 3G coverage. If you want to turn off 3G coverage, you can turn Whispernet off. Keep in mind that turning Whispernet off also disables Wi-Fi connections. Your Kindle can connect to a Wi-Fi network at home, at your favorite caf, or at Wi-Fi hotspots around the world. Connecting through Wi-Fi offers fast downloads and free delivery of personal documents. It also allows your Audible audiobook purchases to be delivered wirelessly to your Kindle, with no computer required. To connect to a Wi-Fi network, see Connect to a Wi-Fi Network later in this chapter. Tip: To check if you have a Wi-Fi only device or a Wi-Fi and 3G capable device, from the Home screen, press Menu, and use the 5-way controller to select Settings. Under the Device Info section on the Settings page, see Network Capability.

Periodicals include newspapers and magazines that can be purchased as a single issue or as a subscription delivered on a regular basis. Your Home screen lists the most recent issue of each periodical you have on your Kindle. Older issues appear inside a grouping called Periodicals: Back Issues. Selecting the grouping takes you to a screen that displays the back issues of all the periodicals you have on your Kindle. Note that Kindle automatically deletes issues that are more than seven issues old to free up space for new content. An exclamation point next to an issue indicates that it will be deleted within 24 hours. To keep an issue, see More about Managing Items.
Collection names appear in an italicized font to differentiate them from books and other items. The number of items in each collection is displayed in parentheses to the right of the collections name.
Blogs are subscription-based and appear on the Home screen as a single entry like books. As additional blog content arrives, it is added to the item and older entries are rolled off, much like a blog works on a computer.

Audible Audiobooks

Audible audiobooks look similar to books, but they will be labeled in the Home screen as Audible content. Like regular books, they have a progress indicator that shows where you are in the audiobook.

PDF Files

PDF files also look similar to books, but they will be labeled in the Home screen as pdf. Like regular books, they have a progress indicator that shows where you are in the file.

Personal Documents

In addition to purchased content, you can read your personal documents (for example, PDF files, text files, Microsoft Word, HTML, or image files) on Kindle. You can attach the files to an e-mail message and send the files to your Kindle e-mail address. Amazon will convert the files if necessary and send them back to your computer or to your Kindle, whichever you prefer. You can also transfer your personal documents to your Kindle by attaching your Kindle to your computer. For more information on transferring, converting, and e-mailing your personal documents, see Chapter 8.

Another way to find reading material in the Kindle Store is to browse through the different content categories such as books or newspapers. Once inside a category, you can further refine your browse by topic. For example, within Books, you can refine listings to Fiction, Nonfiction, Advice & How-to, etc. Each browse page shows the path that you have taken at the top so you can easily retrace your steps.

Browse Listings Sample

The example below shows you the type of listings you will see on the Books browse page.

Buy Current Issue purchases the current issue of the newspaper or magazine and sends it to your Kindle. If youve already purchased the current issue, this option isnt available until the next issue is available.

Kindle Users Guide Chapter 6 Accessing the Web
Chapter 6 Accessing the Web
Your Kindle comes with an Experimental application called Web Browser, which is a standard web browser thats similar to other web browsers you may have used on a computer or another device. It supports JavaScript, SSL, and cookies, but does not support media plug-ins (Flash, Shockwave, etc.) or Java applets. To use the web browser, make sure your Kindle is connected to Whispernet.

6.1 Using Web Browser

There are four ways to open Web Browser. The two main ways are to select launch browser from the Experimental screen or to follow a link from within your reading material. Many of the blogs that you subscribe to from the Kindle Store have links to websites. Selecting these links will open Web Browser and take you to the URL (web address) associated with the link. If you select launch browser from the Experimental page, you will open to the last website you were viewing in your browser. One other way of accessing Web Browser is to type in a word anytime from Home or any book, blog, newspaper, personal document, or magazine you happen to be reading. When you begin typing, a search box will pop up at the bottom of the screen, and you can use the 5-way controller to navigate to the right and select google or wikipedia from the menu to search those sites directly for the word you typed.
You can also enter a URL in the Search box from the Home page. Type the URL and use the 5-way to select go to and then press the 5-way.

Entering a URL

To enter the URL for a website, navigate to the top of the Browser screen to select the URL text field or press Menu and select Enter URL. Begin typing a URL. When you are done typing, use the 5-way controller to select go to and press the 5-way controller to go to that website. The URL text field retains the last URL you entered in case you want to quickly edit the same address and submit it again. If you want to enter a secure site with an https address, use the Delete key to delete the automatically entered http:// and type the address you want.
To the right of the URL text field there is a button to stop loading or reload the current page. From there, use the 5-way to navigate to the right to select google so you can quickly , search with Google for the text entered in the URL text field. Or, navigate to the right again to search Wikipedia. To the left of the URL text field are shortcuts to navigate back and forward one page.
Using Bookmarks and Adding Your Own
Bookmarks let you easily access a web page without needing to type the address every time. When you open Web Browser from the Experimental page for the first time, you will see a list of default bookmarks with links to news, sports, and other information. While browsing, you can also access the same list of bookmarks by selecting Bookmarks from the browser menu (just press the Menu button). To add a website to the Bookmarks page, simply navigate to the site that you want to bookmark and press the Menu button. Move the cursor to Bookmark This Page and press the 5-way controller. Any new bookmarks will be added to the existing list on your Kindle. You can remove a bookmark by going to your Bookmarks list and using the 5-way controller to navigate to the item that you want to delete. Navigate the 5-way left to display delete bookmark. Press the 5-way and the site will be deleted from your Bookmarks. From the Bookmarks list, navigating the 5-way to the right lets you edit the name of the bookmark.
Using Next Page and Previous Page
Most web pages you find on the Internet will have more content than can be displayed on one page. Use the Next Page and Previous Page buttons to scroll up or down to see more of the current web page. This is equivalent to using your mouse on a computer to move up and down in a web page. You can also move around the page using the directional buttons on the 5-way controller.
Selecting Links, Buttons, and Boxes
You can navigate the links on a web page by using the 5-way controller to move the cursor around the page. Links in Web Browser are shown as underlined words, just like the links you see when youre reading a book. Below is a web page with multiple selectable links.

Using the 5-way, position the cursor over a link, so that it changes to a hand icon press the 5-way to select that link. The browser will open that page.

, then

If you want to enter information in an input field in a web page, for example, to search that site, you should move the cursor to that input field and begin typing. When you finish typing, press the Return key or select the nearby Go or Enter or Search button to retrieve the results. If there are radio buttons embedded within a web page, you can choose one by moving the cursor to the button you want to change and pressing the 5-way to select this button.

Remember, you can always press the Search key on the keyboard from anywhere on Kindle and use Search to look up a particular feature or learn more about how to do a particular task. The Table of Contents for the Kindle User's Guide shows you all of the topics covered in this guide. You can get there by
selecting "Table of Contents" from the menu. An underlined word or words like the line above are another way to navigate. They indicate a link to somewhere else in the material you are reading like a footnote, a chapter, or a web site.

If it says "My Kindle" instead of your Amazon name, you need to register. To register, select "Settings" from the Home menu and then select "Register" on the page that appears to enter the Amazon account information you use on your computer. If your Amazon user name or password contains characters not present on the Kindle keyboard, press the SYM key on the bottom of the keyboard to see a menu of the extended characters and select the character you require. Alternatively, you can register your Kindle by visiting the Manage Your Kindle page on Amazon.com at: http://www.amazon.com/manageyourkindle You can leave the Kindle User's Guide, or any item you are reading, at any time by pressing the Home key on the keyboard or by selecting another destination from the menu. If you are done reading, you can put your Kindle to sleep by holding down the ALT key and pressing the text key (you wake up Kindle the same way). Sleeping your Kindle will extend battery life and also lock all of the keys and buttons so you don't inadvertently press one while not using your Kindle. If you ever need assistance, you can use the Web or your telephone to contact us. See Chapter 9 for all of the Kindle Support contact options.

In the Welcome chapter of the Kindle User's Guide, you read about many of the things you can do with your Kindle. This chapter reviews all of the physical features of Kindle and covers the basics of using the Kindle buttons, menus, and keyboard.

1.1 Views of Kindle

Front View
The front of your Kindle contains the display, the keyboard, and the navigation controls. These features are illustrated below, and explained in the list that follows.
Cursor bar contains the cursor, which is a silver rectangle that allows you to select a particular line on the display. You move the cursor up and down the bar using the select wheel. When the cursor is lined up with what you want to select, press down and release the select wheel to make your selection. Next page button takes you to the next page in your reading material. To accommodate different ways of holding Kindle, there is a next page button on both sides. Select wheel roll this wheel to move the cursor up and down the cursor bar. Press it to select a particular item. Back button like the back button on your web browser, it allows you to retrace your steps on Kindle. For example, you can follow a link in a book and then use the Back button to return to your place. Try it now by selecting this footnote link1 by rolling the cursor to the line that contains the footnote and pressing down on the select wheel. From the menu that appears, choose "1" at the bottom of the menu to follow the link, and then press the Back button to return to this spot after
you have read the footnote. Keyboard use the keyboard to enter search terms, notes in your content, URLs for Web sites, etc. There are also some special keys on the keyboard that are described later in this chapter. Previous page button takes you to the previous page in your reading material. If there is no previous page, acts like the Back button.

Back View

The back of your Kindle contains the power and wireless on/off switches, the speaker for audio content, and a removable back cover which covers the battery, the SD memory card slot, and the reset button.
Power switch turns your Kindle on or off. However, instead of turning your Kindle off when you are done reading, you can just hold down the ALT key and then press and release the Text key to put your Kindle to sleep. This will extend your battery life and locks all of the other keys and buttons on Kindle so you don't accidentally change the place in your reading. Tip: While your Kindle is asleep the screen will instruct you to press the same keys, Kindle will also go to sleep by itself after ten minutes if you are not using it. and , to wake it up. Your

1.2 Getting Around

To get around on your Kindle, you use the buttons, menus, and the keyboardall of which are explained here.

Using the Buttons

In the Welcome section you learned about the navigation buttons (Previous page, Next page, and Back). For an explanation of what each button does, see Front View of Kindle.

Using the Menus

In addition to the physical buttons, you also navigate Kindle using the menus. Kindle has different types of menus, but they all work the same way. For example, to open an application menu, roll the cursor with the select wheel until it is next to the word "Menu" on the bottom of the display. Now press the select wheel to open the menu. Once the menu is displayed, use the cursor and select wheel to select an item from the menu. The illustration below shows the cursor, the select wheel, and the selection points. Selection points only show up next to items you can select.
The Application Menu Every screen on Kindle has an application menu at the bottom of the page. When you select this menu, it displays choices that are related to the screen you are viewing. The sample screen below shows you the Home screen with the Home menu showing.
Other Menus In addition to the application menus, you will see menus that appear at the top right of the screen like the Show and Sort menu on the Home screen and the Annotation menu in the Reader screen that appears when you select a line of text. The sample screen below shows the Reader screen with the Annotation menu showing.

Using the Special Keys

In addition to the usual numbers, letters, and punctuation, your Kindle keyboard contains a few keys that perform specialized functions:

Home key

takes you to the Home screen which lists all of the reading material you have on your Kindle.
Text key allows you to change the size of the text while you are reading. Press the text key and use the select wheel to choose a different text size.

The 1X letters at the top of the antenna icon indicate that your Kindle is connected to the 1XRTT wireless network which is slower than the usual Whispernet service. You will notice that your wireless activities take longer in this mode. Kindle will automatically switch back to the faster EVDO network when available.
Your antenna is black, but none of the bars are lled in. This means the wireless signal strength is too low to connect. You will not be able to connect to the Kindle Store, Your Media Library, Basic Web, Kindle NowNow, register your device, or receive your subscriptions.
The question mark at the top of the antenna icon means Whispernet is checking for signal strength. This usually lasts less than 30 seconds.
The battery is too low to power the Whispernet service. You must charge your Kindle battery to restore wireless service.
The Whispernet service is turned off. You must turn on the wireless switch on the back of your Kindle to restore Whispernet service (if available).
Battery Status Indicators
The battery status indicator shows the approximate battery charge level. Here are the possible states.
You have your Kindle plugged in to the AC adapter and the battery is charging. The charge indicator light on the bottom of your Kindle will also light up.
The images above show the various states of the battery as it discharges. As you deplete the battery, less of the battery indicator will be lled in.
When the battery gets too low to power the Whispernet service, you will see this battery indicator. The Whispernet service has been powered down and you should charge your battery soon.
The Kindle Home screen gives you an overall picture of what you currently have on your Kindle. It shows you what has arrived recently, what you are reading, and where you are in your reading. The Content Manager allows you to move content from Your Media Library on Amazon.com to your Kindle or SD memory card. In addition, you can move or remove content on your Kindle or SD memory card. Read below for more details.
Your Home screen displays a list of all of your reading materials books, newspapers, magazines, personal documents, as well as audiobooks. It serves as a personal bookshelf for all of your reading material, as well as a starting point to access other Kindle features. To display the Home screen, press the Home key in the bottom row of your Kindle keyboard or select Home from the application menu. By default, the Home screen lists all of the items that you have on your Kindle beginning with the most recently viewed (or acquired) items. Each type of content has a slightly different description and label. You can read more about the types of content available in Chapter 3. Kindle Books Books are shown by title and author. Your place in the book is indicated by the progress indicator beneath the book title. The length of the progress indicator gives you an approximation of how long the book is and the bold dots indicate how far along you are in the book based on the last page you viewed. Periodicals Periodicals are items that are purchased as a single issue or as a subscription delivered on a regular basis. Periodicals include newspapers and magazines. Each periodical is grouped in one line on the Home screen indicated by the white grouping indicator on the right side of the display as shown below. Selecting the grouping indicator will take you to a screen displaying all the issues of the periodical that you have on your Kindle. Blogs Blogs are subscription based and also appear on the Home screen as a single entry like books. As additional blog content arrives, they will be added to the item much like a blog works on a computer. Audiobooks Audiobooks look similar to books, but they include an icon identifying them as audiobooks. Like

Magazines

The Kindle Store offers an expanding selection of magazines to meet every interest. As with newspapers, all periodical subscriptions are delivered wirelessly and start with a free trial.
The Kindle Store offers hundreds of Kindle blogs, including up-to-the-minute news feeds and topical blogs from the worlds of business, technology, sports, and politics. Kindle blogs are sent to you wirelessly throughout the day, allowing you to keep current. Unlike traditional feeds which often only provide headlines, Kindle feeds download the complete feed onto the device so you can read them even when you are not wirelessly connected.

Personal Documents

In addition to purchased content, you can read your personal documents on Kindle as well. If you have les formatted as Kindle, text, Microsoft Word, HTML, or image les like GIF or JPEG, you can e-mail the les as attachments to your Kindle e-mail address. Amazon will convert the les if
necessary and send them back to your computer for free or wirelessly to your Kindle for a small fee, whichever you prefer. For more information on transferring, converting, and e-mailing your personal documents, see Chapter 8.

Audiobooks

You can download and enjoy thousands of audiobooks from Audible.com. Due to their le size, audiobooks must be downloaded to your PC over your existing Internet connection and then transferred to Kindle over USB. Listen to audiobooks via Kindle's speaker or plug in your headphones for private listening.

Background Music

If you like to listen to music while you use your Kindle, use your computer to transfer MP3 les to the "music" folder on your Kindle or on an inserted SD memory card. When you select "Play Music" from the Experimental page, each of the songs will play in random order.
3.2 Content Formatting on Kindle
When you read a book on Kindle, you will nd that the formatting generally follows the printed version of the book. If the book has a table of contents, it will appear in Kindle. If the book has chapters, a preface, an illustrated cover, and so forth, these will be displayed. While you are reading, each page displays a header showing the content title and the author or issue date. The bottom of the page shows the battery and Whispernet status indicators, the Menu, the progress indicator, and the location numbers. The status indicators and the Menu were discussed in earlier chapters. As discussed in Chapter 2, the progress indicator shows your progress in the item you are reading. The location numbers are the digital equivalent of physical page numbers and provide a way to easily reference an exact place in your reading material regardless of what size text you prefer.

Removing a Bookmark To remove a bookmark you have created, either re-select the dog ear icon or select "Delete Bookmark" from the menu. Viewing Your Bookmarks To view your bookmarks, select "Go to Bookmark." from the menu. Each bookmark entry will show a location number, then the rst line of the bookmarked location. There is no limit to the number of bookmarks that you can have, and you can turn pages in the "Go to Bookmark" screen just as you would in a book. As mentioned earlier, your bookmarks are also stored in your "My Clippings" le for later reference. Bookmarks are listed in the order that they occur in the document, regardless of when you made them. To go directly to the location shown, select the line corresponding to the bookmarked location reference. Tip: You can also navigate among your set bookmarks by selecting the progress bar at the bottom of the screen. The screen will gray out and you will see small inverted triangles over the progress bar indicating places in the reading material that you bookmarked. You can move among them by using the Next Page and Prev Page buttons. Your current location is marked by the slightly larger hollow triangle. You also see representations of the number keys on the keyboard from 1 - 0 indicating 10 percent increments of the reading material, so you can quickly jump to the part of the item you are reading by pressing the corresponding number key.
If you accidentally move to a bookmark, you can return to your reading location by using the Next and Prev Page buttons to go back to the hollow triangle. To return to reading, roll the cursor off the progress bar and the enhanced progress bar will be hidden.

Using Highlights

You can highlight text in Kindle like you would use a highlighter pen on paper. Everything you highlight is also added to your "My Clippings" book. Highlighting a Passage To highlight one or more lines, follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Scroll to the start of the passage you want to highlight. Press the select wheel. Scroll to the "Add Highlight" selection. Press the select wheel. Per the instructions at the top of the screen, scroll to the end of the passage you want to highlight. 6. Press the select wheel. 7. Notice that a highlight box appears around your passage. Deleting a Highlight To remove a highlight, follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Scroll to anywhere in the highlighted passage. Press the select wheel. Scroll to the "Delete Highlight" selection. Press the select wheel. Note that the passage is no longer enclosed in a box.

Viewing Your Annotations To view your annotations, select "My Notes & Marks" from the menu. Each entry will show a location number followed by your bookmark, highlighted passage, or note. There is no limit to the number of notes and marks that you can have. You can turn pages in the "My Notes & Marks" screen just as you would in a book. Your annotations are listed in the order that they occur in the document, regardless of when you made them. To go directly to an annotation shown, select the line corresponding to the note or mark you are interested in. As mentioned earlier, your annotations are also stored in your "My Clippings" le for later reference.

Using Notes

To add, edit, or delete a note, follow these steps: 1. Scroll to anywhere within a page you are reading. 2. Press the select wheel. 3. Scroll to the "Add Note" selection if you want to add a new note, the "Edit Note" selection if
you want to change an existing note, or the "Delete Note" selection if you want to delete an existing note. 4. Press the select wheel. 5. Use the keyboard to enter a new note or to edit an existing one. 6. When you have nished, scroll to "Done," and press the select wheel. 7. If you added a note, once you return to the page, notice that a note icon right side of your text. now appears on the

Using Clippings

Clippings allow you to add an entire page at once to your "My Clippings" le. Once you have created a clipping you can continue to store it on your Kindle, or you can copy it to your computer (see Chapter 8). The clipping remains intact in your "My Clippings" le even if you delete the item it came from. To clip an entire page for your "My Clippings" le, follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. Scroll to the Menu selection. Press the select wheel. Select "Save Page as Clipping." The page is automatically added to your "My Clippings" le. To view this clipping, go to your Home screen, and select "My Clippings."
More about "My Clippings" Once a bookmark, note, highlight, or clipped page is added to the "My Clippings" le, it cannot be removed individually from the "My Clippings" le. You can edit the "My Clippings" le on your computer and save it back to your Kindle if you want to edit the contents of the le. Alternatively, you can move or remove the "My Clippings" le from Kindle and a new one will be created the next time you add a clipping or annotation to any content. Altering your "My Clippings" le does not affect any notes, bookmarks, or highlights you've made in individual documents. Those items will still be present the next time you open an item for reading, and you will be able to use them for navigation and reference. Also, the "My Clippings" le is simply a storage place for the notes you make. While viewing the le, you cannot navigate through to the materials referenced in the le.

Kindle allows you to take advantage of powerful search capabilities. You can search locally on Kindle or remotely at the Kindle Store, Wikipedia, or the Web.
4.1 Introduction to Search
This section describes the types of searches that you can perform using Kindle and the on-screen features that make searching possible. There is also a list of steps to help you begin your search.

Types of Searches

Kindle supports several types of search and, depending on what you are trying to nd, one of the types summarized below should be appropriate for your needs. Searching Locally By default, Kindle searches all the reading material that you have stored on Kindle rst. This includes occurrences of the search term in the body of the text, in the metadata (for example, the title or author), and in your "My Clippings" le. This search includes all types of content including books, newspapers, magazines, and other items stored on your Kindle. Additionally, Kindle also keeps and searches the metadata for all the items you have stored on Your Media Library. Searching for Denitions Kindle searches your default dictionary for denitions of the word you have entered. An example of this type of search is provided in the next section. Searching Remotely Kindle can perform remote searches in several different locations using Whispernet. Each of these remote location searches are described in the nal section of this chapter. See Searching Wikipedia, or Searching the Web, or Searching the Kindle Store. Searching for Answers Kindle provides another type of search that is not related to the search types described above. Kindle NowNow allows you to search for answers to your questions that real people provide. This service is described in more detail in Ask Kindle NowNow.

Performing a Search

To perform a search, you rst press the Search key to display the Search line shown below. The Search line provides a text area for you to enter your search criteria. You can enter up to
255 characters. In the example below, the user has entered the word politics in the Search line.
To perform a search, follow these steps: 1. If the bottom of your screen is not displaying the Search line, press the Search key (shown above). 2. Type in your search criteria. You can use whole words or partial words, and no distinction is made between lower and upper case. 3. Select "Go" to submit the search. 4. You will see the Search Results page that allows you to rene your search or choose a result.
4.2 The Search Results Page
By default, your search will look only in the reading materials you have on your Kindle and the metadata (like title and author) of the materials you have stored in Your Media Library on Amazon. This includes anything purchased, any personal documents you have transferred, any local reference materials, and any annotations that you have created. You can expand your search to include locations beyond your Kindle such as Wikipedia, the Web, or the Kindle Store by making the appropriate selection on the Search Results page. The example below shows a typical Search Results page. In this case, the user has searched for politics which is shown at the top of the page.

Your Kindle comes with an Experimental application called Basic Web which is a Web browser that is optimized to read text-centric Web sites. It supports JavaScript, SSL and cookies but does not support media plug-ins (Flash, Shockwave, etc.) or Java applets.

6.1 Using Basic Web

To open the Basic Web browser, you can either select "Basic Web" from the "Experimental" screen or follow a link from within your reading material. Many of the blogs that you subscribe to from the Kindle Store have links to Web sites. Selecting these links will open Basic Web and take you to the URL associated with the link. If you select Basic Web from the Experimental page, you will see the Bookmarks page instead.

Entering a URL

To enter the URL for a Web site, select "Enter URL" at the top of the screen. You will see a text entry box like the one below where you can enter the address and select "Submit" to view that Web site.
The "Enter URL" text entry box retains the last URL you entered in case you want to quickly edit the same address and submit it again. If you want to enter a secure site with an "https" address, use the backspace key to delete the automatically entered "://" and type the address you want.
Using Bookmarks and Adding Your Own
Bookmarks let you easily access a Web page without needing to type the address every time. When you open Basic Web from the Experimental page, you will see a list of default bookmarks with links to information such as daily news, weather, yellow pages, etc. While browsing, you can also access the same list of bookmarks by selecting "Bookmarks" from the menu. To add a Web site to the Bookmarks page, simply select "Add Bookmark" from the menu when you are on the page you want to add. Any new bookmarks that you select will be added to the existing list on your Kindle. You can remove a bookmark by selecting "Delete Bookmark." from the Basic Web menu and then selecting the bookmark you want to remove.
Using Next Page and Previous Page
Most Web pages you nd on the Internet will have more content than can be displayed on one page. On Kindle, you will see "1 of n" if there are more pages to see. Use the "Next Page" and "Prev Page" button to move through these pages. This is equivalent to using your mouse on a computer to move up and down through a Web page.
