New Kindle Great on Train, but no back button
I never get a seat in the morning. While standing today, I whipped out my new kindle, slid it out of the sleeve, and was very happy with the reading experience. My only gripe is there is no back button, and I am not quite used to the new way of doing things.
Got an email Friday night, that Amazon was storing my personal documents. That was after I sent some books to my kindle via Calibre. Now I don't have to worry about my Dropbox limit! PS: As lisreed pointed out, I am an idiot. The back button is in a different place than I am used to, but it is there, alright. Last edited by Sydney's Mom; 10-03-2011 at 12:52 PM. |

Isn't the button on the left side a back button? When I open the dictionary I use it to return to the page.

This could be the new K4 $79 version. There is no keyboard and the buttons are different

According to the manual, the Back button is the leftmost one on the front of the device, to the left of the keyboard button.

On the Kindle Basic the buttons are, from left to right, back, keyboard, 5-way, menu, home.
