QuestionSo, the 3G is only good if you're away from wi-fi and want to download a book? Otherwise, if the book is already downloaded, you can read without any 3G service. Is this correct?
Asked 9 years ago by Maezy.
- Answer Yes. You can choose either Wi-Fi or 3G where Wi-Fi is offered and you have an access key. Otherwise 3G is the better option as it utilizes cell towers/cell phone network so if you can use your phone you can down load a book or receive updates to a book. The connectivity is not to just down load a book but to keep your pages and book marks across different readers should you switch between it and say your computer and want to continue reading from where you left off or look back at a reference/book mark you made earlier in the book. Also if you have an Amazon Prime account they offer hundreds of newer released free books that you can read but not download so the 3G would allow you to keep reading as you travel around and remember where you stopped. Hope this was of help.

QuestionDoes this one have the unwanted special offers on it?
Asked 8 years ago by Phyllis.
- Answer All of the kindles have the advertisements on them from BestBuy. If you buy direct from Amazon, you can get it without the advertisements but it will cost you $20.00 extra. I believe the ones from Best Buy can have the advertisements removed if you contact Amazon but it will still cost you $20.00 to do this.

Questionhow do you transfer books bought but not read from old kindle to new paperwhite 3G model?
Asked 7 years ago by avidreader.
- Answer If you use a Kindle, you should be familiar with the idea that you only get books through Amazon. You then have them in the cloud, and can download them again to any device, including a new Kindle you buy.

QuestionIs it difficult to download books from the public library with the PaperWhite? Wi-Fi or 3G - which would be better for this?
Asked 8 years ago by cwl2017.
- Answer The WiFi is always faster, and is unlimited. The 3G,does have a limit, in both speed and total amount per month, but it's pretty high, not likely to hit it. Use WiFi when it is available. The 3G is for when you are not in WiFi range. This is very nice, so you can browse and download as you move around, and when in remote locations. I download a daily newspaper where ever I go, on the 3G.

QuestionHad friends over tonight and my friend was telling me about the problems with a Kindle from amazon that she just bought for her husband. When they received it - it was not English but Dutch. Spent 2 hours on the phone and could not get the issue resolved.
Asked 9 years ago by Carol.
- Answer Many electronic devices are country world region specific. This was a huge problem back in the day when people used DVD players a lot. You may have bought the Kindle while shopping on Amazon, but you didn't but it FROM Amazon new. You got " a deal", on a used one. Return it. While it is possible to burn a device to a new region a few times, you are not likely to be able to do this with a Kindle.

QuestionIf I purchase a second Kindle - Paperwhite, will I be able to access books already on the 1st Kindle
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer As long as both kindles are connected to the same Amazon account, you will be able to access books bought on that account. I think it has a limit of 3 or 4 devices per account. It only works for books bought though, not books uploaded into the kindle through a computer such as a pdf.

QuestionCan you connect with the internet on this Kindle?
Asked 9 years ago by Cashee.
- Answer Only supported on Wi-Fi, not 3G. And these browsers have always been called "experimental" so there is no guarantee they will work with any site, or that data will be displayed correctly. Typically the browser is quite slow and challenging to use for many advanced web sites. Most sites use advanced things like Flash and Javascript, which may not work on this basic simple browser.

QuestionDo all Kindle Paperwhites have audio capability? Which Kindle have audio capability? Why doesn't the title of book not show on the page? Why doesn't it tell you where you are in the book? How much further you are to the end off chapter/book?
Asked 9 years ago by Bobbie.
- Answer 1 - Can't answer for all models, but the Kindle Paperwhite I purchased sadly does NOT have audiobook capability. A fact I did not know when I purchased it to replace my old Kindle Touch (which DID have audiobook capability). 2 - Tapping on the very lower left bottom on your screen should make your reading progress visible

QuestionBookmarksI have an old Kindle where you can only find your place by searching for a location number which I often don't remember. I use bookmarks but sometimes I am booted out of the page & then cannot find my bookmark! So I scroll & scroll forever to find my place again. So frustrating. Does the Paperwhite have better options for recalling your bookmark or last location? Thanks!
Asked 9 years ago by Sabina.
- Answer On Paperwhite, if you click on the upper right-hand corner of the display when your book is open, it will give you an option to set a bookmark, but also will show you other bookmarks that you have set for that book. You can click on any of them and it will show you a smaller version of the page where that bookmark is, which you can then go to if desired. To set a bookmark on a page, when you click in the upper right corner, just click the little + and that will add that page to your list of bookmarks. I believe this is a huge improvement over earlier Kindles which required you to open up menus in order to find other bookmarks.

QuestionHow does a kindle work as far as loading books? Haven't read much but thinking if I had a kindle I would.
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Using your Kindle, you can access the Kindle store, which is amazon for books and other things like games that your Kindle uses. Your Kindle is connected to your amazon account so you can buy books directly on your Kindle through the store or you can use your amazon account on your laptop or phone. The books are then are downloaded to your Kindle when it is connected to the internet.
