Amazon's new version of their Kindle e-book reader has launched today. It boasts a 25% longer battery life and a smaller form factor than the original. It also debuts a new text-to-speech feature that can read any printed content to you.
The screen is supposed to have more levels of gray when it displays content to you, but I'm still holding out for color. Once that arrives, I'll dump all my web development text books and pick them up on the Kindle.
The device will be available on February 24th but Amazon is accepting pre-orders now.
