What to get that person on your holiday list who has everything? If he has a Kindle device, he doesn’t have one of these…yet.
Amazon announced today the personalization service that lets users upload their own images and designs or choose from some of the many images in their catalog to create one-of-a-kind Kindle covers. These stock images in their library include photos from popular television shows like Peanuts, National Geographic, Breaking Bad, Star Trek, and more.
“With this new service, we’re making it possible for customers to dream up virtually any design and seamlessly turn it into a Kindle cover—at no additional cost,” said Peter Larsen, Vice President, Amazon Kindle. “We’ve also created designs exclusive to Amazon that work perfectly with our new Origami covers to give customers even more options. We’re excited to bring this all-new technology to Kindle accessories and we can’t wait to see what customers come up with.”
The covers, which Amazon calls its Origami covers, are fully versatile and serve not only as a protection for the device, but also as a stand for both portrait and landscape. The Origami covers are compatible with Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Fire HD and Kindle Fire HDX, plus previous generations of Kindle e-readers and tablets.
