Look It Up
Your Kindle includes a built-in dictionary, The New Oxford American Dictionary. You
can easily look up a particular word without leaving the content. Simply use the 5-way
controller to navigate the cursor in front of the word you want defined. A definition of
the word appears at the bottomof the screen. To view the full definition, press the
Return key on the keyboard. To return to the text you were reading, press the
Back button. To choose a different dictionary, see "Choosing Your Primary Dictionary"
in Chapter 7.
Take It All with You
Kindle DX can store over 3600 digital books, personal documents, newspapers, blogs,
magazines, and audiobooks, which are referred to collectively as "content" throughout
this guide. A copy of all your books and recent issues of newspapers and magazines
purchased from the Kindle Store are kept on Amazon.
To display the list of content on your Kindle, press the Home button. Use the 5-way
controller to underline the item you want to open and then press the 5-way to open the
item. To delete content on your Kindle, use the 5-way controller to underline the item
you want to delete. Move the 5-way to the left to select “remove from device” and then
press the 5-way to complete the removal of the item.
To transfer previously deleted content from Amazon back to your Kindle, the wireless
Whispernet service must be on. From Home, select "Archived Items." This shows all of
the content stored at Amazon. Underline the item you want to move back to your Kindle
and move the 5-way to the right and then press the 5-way to start the transfer. In under
a minute, the item re-downloads into your Kindle and appears in the list of content in
Home.
