Amazon had introduced both the new Kindle Paperwhite ebook readers in the middle of January, making them available for pre-order with deliveries starting from February 4.The new generation Kindle Paperwhite ebook readers were launched in the US back in September last year. On the other hand, however, the company has already stopped selling the older Paperwhite on its India website.

all from their Kindle.
