My favorite feature? Read-to-Me! With Text-to-Speech, Kindle can read English-language content out loud to you. (So maybe I’m a little lazy sometimes ) My husband just ordered me a new Kindle with a hot pink cover! I am so excited!!

Amazon has also introduced a new addition to the Kindle family of reading devices—Kindle Wi-Fi, a Wi-Fi only model for just $139. The new Kindle and Kindle Wi-Fi are now available for pre-order at Amazon and will ship to customers in late August.

The Kindle Store now has over 630,000 books and the largest selection of the most popular books people want to read, including 109 of 112 New York Times Bestsellers and New Releases from $9.99. Don’t forget to check out all the free books available for the Kindle! And you can also get a free Kindle app for your Blackberry, Android, iPhone, iPad, PC, or Mac to use alone or to sync with your Kindle.

Whew, that’s a lot of info. I’m super excited to receive mine! If you have a previous Kindle version, what do you think of it?
