Free books!

Once you have your Kindle, how do you get content on it?

Well, there is a lot of free e-books around. Try out:

  • The Kindle store - many out-of-copyright books are available here for free. Best thing is you can already "buy" them before your Kindle even arrives - they will sync once you switch it on. Of course, you can access the store directly from your Kindle - hit the Menu key and select "store".
  • Project Gutenberg: Check out their mobile site at http://m.gutenberg.org/. Even nicer: download the "Magic Catalog" onto your Kindle, then you can get books directly from there. Here's how.
  • There's plenty of other sites that list free e-books, e.g. http://manybooks.net/
