How Many E-Books Can Kindle Store?
Kindle dimensions are compact so much so that you can easily carry this e-book reader around wherever you go. Its compact size however, does not limit your soft copies of books to just two to three books at a time.
As a matter of fact, you not only get to load a few hundred books at a time; you get to load a few thousand books – about three thousand and five hundred of them.
What this means is that you can have your own library of your favorite books as well as a few other books for school or work right within a single, compact and portable digital device.
Features
Other than the capacity to store more than three thousand electronic books at a time, Kindle units come with special features that make reading even more enjoyable.
For instance, if you would like the book to be read out to you, there is a special feature in Kindle units that can convert the books from text to speech.
So whether you want to read together with the Kindle or you simply want to listen to the book being read out loud to you as you rest in bed, you can use the Text-to-Speech feature to activate this option.
On the other hand, if you would like to download audio books instead of text books, the Kindle can also handle and manage audio book formats which means that your book options are not limited to the text versions only.
