Tablets designed exclusively for digital books, magazines or newspapers are under pressure from rivals that go beyond reading material to game play, Internet browsing and more.
Amazon backs Kindles with a massive collection of digital works that can be bought as well as a lending library for borrowing digital books.
The Seattle-based online retail titan also announced a MatchBook service that gives Kindle book buyers the option of getting low-cost digital versions of ink-and-paper Kindle editions they have purchased.
Kindle Matchbook will launch in October with 10,000 titles, digital copies of which will range in price from free to $3.
