Consumers will no longer have to go online to buy a Kindle with the announcement that the Paperwhite version of the e-reader is now available at Dick Smith and Big W stores.

The all-new Kindle Paperwhite features new display technology with high contrast, a next-generation built-in light, a faster processor, the latest touch technology, and new features designed from the ground up for readers.

Kindle Paperwhite combines the best hardware, massive selection, best reading features, best customer service, personalized recommendations, customer reviews, and more—into one seamlessly integrated service for customers. This is the reason Kindle owners read four times as many books—print and eBooks—as they do prior to owning a Kindle.

Features include:

• New display technology means whites are whiter and blacks are blacker, so the pages are virtually indistinguishable from a physical book.
• Next generation built-in light—guides light toward the surface of the display so you can read comfortably without eyestrain.
• 25 percent faster processor—books open and pages turn faster for a seamless reading experience.
• New touch technology—19 percent tighter touch grid makes Kindle Paperwhite respond more accurately to the small touches, while still avoiding accidental page turns.
• Page Flip—Skim page-by-page, scan by chapter, or skip to the end of your book, all without losing your place.
• Vocabulary Builder—compiles words you look up in the dictionary into an easy-to-access list. Use these lists to quiz yourself with flashcards and instantly see words in context.

New Smart Lookup—Integrates a full dictionary definition with other reference information about a word, character, topic or book via X-Ray and Wikipedia.
