Kindle for iOS is among a host of apps being updated to take advantage of the increased resolution. The new version helps to ensure that books and magazines look as crisp as ever but there are few other updates or improvements… [Continue Reading] Continue reading at 'Betanews'

Amazon Kindles are easily the most popular ereader on the market — but they don’t go on sale often. Now that Amazon’s (twice) yearly Prime Day sale has... Continue reading at Engadget

Amazon is known for its discounts, so it’s odd that its own Kindle ereaders don’t go on sale all that often. Prime Day events are one notable exception, and this year is no different.
