notes, highlights and bookmarks, which are synchronised across devices, together with the
last page you read, via our Whispersync technology. Synchronisation of notes, highlights,
bookmarks and last page read is available only for personal documents archived in Kindle
format. You can also read documents in PDF and TXT format natively.

Reading Kindle content on other devices

You can synchronise your Kindle books with other supported devices you own and Kindle
reading applications. Amazon's Whispersync technology keeps track of the last reading
location in each book. For example, you can read a few pages using the Kindle application
on your iPhone, iPad or Android device and then pick up right where you left off when you
return to your Kindle. For a complete list of supported devices and Device Synchronisation
settings, go to www.kindle.com/support.

Sharing comments via social networks

The share feature enables you to share books, Kindle highlights, and comments with friends
via social networks, including Goodreads on Kindle. To link your Kindle to your social
network accounts and enable sharing, from the Home screen, tap the Menu button and
select Settings. On the Settings page, tap Reading Options, then tap Social Networks.
Once you have set up the sharing feature, from within a book you can select Share from the
secondary toolbar and enter a message and share it with your social network. To access the
sharing feature when you select text, press and hold on text, then drag your finger across
the screen to select it. If you select a sentence or multiple words, a dialog box will appear
with an option to share. If you select a single word, a definition of the word displays and
options include Search and More. Tap the More button to share the selected text.

Using your Kindle with your computer

Your Kindle uses Amazon Whispernet to deliver books, periodicals, personal documents,
Kindle Singles and blogs to your Kindle without the need for a computer.
When you first connect the Kindle to a computer's USB port, it will appear as an external
storage drive or volume on the computer's desktop. You'll see a directory or folder called
"documents". You can add Kindle-compatible files to this directory, and you can copy, move
or delete the files that are already there. See the Kindle Support website
(www.kindle.com/support) for more information on supported file types.
Your Kindle is not usable as a reading device while in USB drive mode. To read a book
whilst charging the battery, you must eject the Kindle from your computer's desktop.
