Millions of people are already reading on Kindles and Kindle is the #1 bestselling item on Amazon.com
for two years running. It’s also the most-wished-for, most-gifted, and has the most 5-star reviews of any product on Amazon.com

is excited to introduce a new generation of Kindle
. The all-new Kindle has a new electronic-ink screen with 50 percent better contrast than any other e-reader, a new sleek design with a 21 percent smaller body while still keeping the same 6-inch-size reading area, and a 15 percent lighter weight at just 8.7 ounces. TheĀ new generation of Kindle
also offers 20 percent faster page turns, up to one month of battery life, double the storage to 3,500 books, built-in Wi-Fi, a graphite color option and more–all for only $189, and still with free 3G wireless–no monthly bills or annual contracts. Also today, Amazon.com
introduced a new addition to its family of portable reading devices–Kindle Wi-Fi

and will ship to customers in over 140 countries and 30 territories beginning August 27. Read more
Is Amazon ready to surprise us with new Kindle?
July 28, 2010 · Leave a Comment.........
On Amazon.com the Kindle Wireless Reading Device
is “temporarily out of stock” for the unbeatable price of $189. The latest version, Kindle DX
, also is selling some twenty or twenty five cheaper than 2 months ago, when Apple launched the iPad.
Perhaps, now the availability of faster and cheaper chips can help Amazon to improve the Kindle’s response time, which may result in the debut of the next generation Kindle.

Market Overview
UAE IT spending is forecast to bounce back strongly in 2010, despite current economic uncertainties. UAE spending on IT products and services is now projected to reach US$3.4bn in 2010, as double-digit growth is led by a big increase in PC sales, which declined sharply last year.
Government spending and investment should help to support the market going forward, with further opportunities in sectors such as education, healthcare, utilities, banking and telecoms. UAE economic growth is projected to pick up in 2010, with a recovery in credit and loan markets expected by the end of 2010. However the property price slump and financial upheavals of late 2009 will continue to influence business and consumer caution. Read more
