Last night, Amazon announced 2 new versions of the 6" Kindle eBook reader. Amazon has decided to take the Barnes & Noble and Apple approach by offering 3G and WiFi only models. Both devices are supposed to offer "50 percent better contrast than any other reader". Additionally, the new models are 21% smaller than the previous version, have double the storage (3,500 books), are 15% lighter (8.7oz), and offer an enhanced PDF reader. The WiFi Only model will sell for $139 and is available in graphite, while the 3G model will sell for $189 and is available in graphite and white. Both models can be pre-ordered now and will ship August 27th.
