Amazon reduces price of Kindle, introduces Kindle Touch

Amazon Kindle Touch

 

In addition to the Kindle Fire tablet, Amazon also updated its original e-book reader Kindle lineup. To make Kindle more affordable, Amazon lowered the price of 6-inch Kindle to $79. Mind you, this comes with Special Offers which means you’ll see sponsored screensavers and special offers on the Kindle. Rest of the Kindle features remain the same.

More interestingly, Amazon introduced a touch version of Kindle in both Wi-Fi and 3G versions. Aptly named as Kindle Touch, this reader is basically the same 6-inch version but with touchscreen support and double the storage space (4GB).

The Kindle Touch Wi-Fi will sell for $99 whereas the Kindle Touch 3G will go for $149. Both models will be available from November 21.
