Our bestselling Kindle is now $259, down from $299. Second, we are introducing a new addition to our Kindle family of wireless reading devices: Kindle with U.S. and International Wireless. Our newest Kindle can ship to customers around the world so you can take advantage of referring Kindle sales to customers outside of the U.S.

With this new Kindle, you can receive your books, newspapers, and magazines wirelessly while at home or abroad in over 100 countries. Whether you’re in New York, Paris, São Paulo, Mumbai, Beijing, Tokyo, or Sydney, you can think of a book and be reading it in less than 60 seconds.

Our $259 Kindle with U.S. Wireless is available for immediate shipment, and our $279 Kindle with U.S. and International Wireless can be preordered today for delivery starting in two weeks.

Kindle utilizes the same 3G wireless technology as advanced cell phones, so you never need to hunt for a Wi-Fi hotspot. Unlike cell phones, there are no monthly wireless bills and no yearly contracts. There is no software to install, and no syncing required.

Kindle is as thin as most magazines and weighs less than a paperback—but can hold 1,500 books. Its electronic-ink screen looks and reads like real paper with no glare—even in bright sunlight. A long battery life means you can read for up to two weeks on a single charge.

The U.S. Kindle Store has more than 350,000 books, including 107 of 112 New York Times bestsellers, plus top newspapers, magazines, and blogs.

I love that for a mere $20 more, you can purchase an international Kindle that will work just about everywhere. Even better, there’s no monthly fee!

Like most people, I probably think about/plan reading books the most when traveling.  I often have to pick books vs. clothes and other necessities!

This may just be the push I needed to try a Kindle out for myself…

There are many well-known authors in the science fiction, fantasy and horror genres, usually known because they hit the NYT Bestseller list, or through good marketing. But who are the less well-known authors you have enjoyed that that we should be looking to read, and why?

Check out the answers on Grasping for the Wind! Listed are many authors I do know, but also many I have not heard of! I’ll definitely be researching some books this afternoon.

Currently, a sample chapter from Slights by Kaaron Warren is available on the Angry Robot website!

From what I have seen in the previews, we also meet Kayla Silverfox (the love interest), Gambit, Cyclops, John Wraith, Emma Frost, and Frederick Dukes.

Also, so everyone knows what a nerd I am, I will relate a story that happened several months ago.

The setting: In line at the grocery store with the honey (who is NOT into comics), scanning magazine covers. We both see Hugh Jackman is on the cover of People’s top sexiest.
The Honey: *Conversationally* I hear he’s really strong (as in real life).
Me: *Shouting* Of course he’s strong!! His skeleton is reinforced with adamantium!! GAH!
The Honey: *Takes step sideways* *Gets in other grocery line while avoiding eye contact*
