kindle 电子书阅读器

It’s easy to think of a Kindle as just an eBook reader, but it’s so much more than that. It’s an MP3 player, portable web browser (with free Wikipedia access over 3G), gaming device, and image viewer.

可以将Kindle仅仅看作是电子书阅读器，这很容易，但是远远不止于此。 它是MP3播放器，便携式Web浏览器(可通过3G免费访问Wikipedia)，游戏设备和图像查看器。

Some of these features only work on the Kindle Keyboard (also known as the Kindle 3G), while some also work on the Kindle Touch. Free 3G browsing is restricted to specific websites on the Kindle Touch.

其中一些功能仅可在Kindle键盘(也称为Kindle 3G)上使用，而另一些功能也可在Kindle Touch上使用。 免费3G浏览仅限于Kindle Touch上的特定网站。

音乐播放器 (Music Player)

Your Kindle includes sound capabilities (a headphone jack and speakers) for listening to audio books and using text-to-speech with eBooks. However, the Kindle also includes an MP3 player – you can copy MP3 files to your Kindle and use your Kindle to play music or podcasts. Music plays in the background while you read, so this feature can provide background music while reading.

Kindle具有声音功能(耳机插Kong和扬声器)，可用于收听有声读物以及将文字转语音与eBooks结合使用。 但是，Kindle还包括一个MP3播放器-您可以将MP3文件复制到Kindle并使用Kindle播放音乐或播客。 阅读时音乐会在后台播放，因此此功能可以在阅读时提供背景音乐。

To copy MP3 files to your Kindle, connect it to your computer with its included USB cable. Access the Kindle in Windows Explorer and place MP3 files in the music folder.

要将MP3文件复制到Kindle，请使用随附的USB电缆将其连接到计算机。 在Windows资源管理器中访问Kindle，然后将MP3文件放在音乐文件夹中。

Eject (or Safely Remove) your Kindle afterwards. On your Kindle, press the Menu button on the home screen and select Experimental.

之后弹出(或安全删除)您的Kindle。 在Kindle上，按主屏幕上的菜单按钮，然后选择实验性。

Select the Play Music option next to Play MP3 on the Experimental page.

Press Alt+Space keys pause or resume MP3 playback. To skip to the next song, press Alt+F. On a Kindle Touch, a music player will appear at the bottom of your screen.

附带的游戏 (Included Games)

免费的3G浏览 (Free 3G Browsing)

Your Kindle includes a web browser, so you can browse the web without switching devices. Of course, the black-and-white E-Ink screen doesn’t provide the ideal experience for web pages.

Kindle包含网络浏览器，因此您无需切换设备即可浏览网络。 当然，黑白电子墨水屏幕不能提供理想的网页体验。

If you have a 3G Kindle Keyboard, you can browse the web from anywhere over the 3G cellular network – free! Amazon has recently instituted a 50MB monthly limit, but you can continue to access Wikipedia and the Amazon Kindle store from everywhere after hitting this limit.

如果您拥有3G Kindle键盘，则可以免费通过3G蜂窝网络从任何地方浏览网络！ 亚马逊最近制定了每月50MB的限制，但是您可以在达到该限制后从任何地方继续访问Wikipedia和Amazon Kindle商店。

图片库 (Image Gallery)

On a Kindle Keyboard, you can add image files to your Kindle’s storage and use your Kindle as an image viewer. The Kindle supports images in JPEG, GIF, and PNG formats. The images will be in black and white, so you can first convert them to black and white to shrink their file size, if you like.

在Kindle键盘上，您可以将图像文件添加到Kindle的存储设备中，并将Kindle用作图像查看器。 Kindle支持JPEG，GIF和PNG格式的图像。 图像将为黑白图像，因此您可以根据需要先将其转换为黑白图像以缩小文件大小。

The Kindle Touch doesn’t support this feature – on a Kindle Touch, image files you want to view must first be converted to eBook format.

Kindle Touch不支持此功能-在Kindle Touch上，要查看的图像文件必须首先转换为eBook格式。

Connect your Kindle to your computer and create a new folder named pictures in its root directory.

Press Alt+Shift+G to take a screenshot of your Kindle’s screen. (The Shift key is the up arrow on your keyboard.) The screen will flash.
