Amazon Prime was launched in the United States in 2005. The service offers customers unlimited expedited shipping for a flat annual fee.


In November 2007, Amazon released the Kindle. The Kindle is an electronic pad capable of downloading various books or better known as "e-books" and other digital media such as newspapers and magazines. There are over 200,000 titles available for the Kindle. The reader downloads content over "whispernet" a free wireless service on the Sprint Network. What makes the Kindles so accessbile to use is that it can be used without a computer. The Kindle comes in three formats, The Original Kindle, the Kindle 2, and the Kindle DX.
