See, fucking amazon. Now if it's only 99 bucks I might bite.

"Cool feature. You can tap in the bottom left corner on a page and tells you the time left to read in the chapter, or in the book. That's awesome. Smart feature. It tracks your reading speed, then calculates that time based on your speed."

 

[vagabondarts]

I really hope that time left until end of chapter crap is optional

"Cool feature. You can tap in the bottom left corner on a page and tells you the time left to read in the chapter, or in the book. That's awesome. Smart feature. It tracks your reading speed, then calculates that time based on your speed."

ah it's a tap to show/hide. good.

That is awesome. I dont really need to see anymore. Readers are pretty simple things, just tell us how much now.

 

[KingKong]

omg that looks so sexy. If they let people send their old Kindles in for a discount I'm all over this thing

 

[joeyjoejoeshabadoo]

How does this work?

Does it track your reading speed and adjusts the time? That's kind of neat.
