Amazon has introduced a new Kindle feature letting you tap the back and sides of the e-reader to turn pages and scroll lists. It was initially thought to be limited to only the Colorsoft and 12th-generation Paperwhite,

Amazon has updated Kindles with a new way to navigate books. While nothing will recapture the tactile pleasure of physical page turn buttons, anyone with a Kindle running Version 5.18.1 of Amazon's software will now be able to double-tap the side or back of their e-reader to turn pages.

A software update available for the latest Amazon Kindle e-readers which adds an unexpected, but very helpful new gesture control to the system.

As of March 26, the Kindle Paperwhite Kids is on sale at Amazon for $139.99 as part of the Big Spring Sale. That's 22% off its list price of $179.99. Amazon's Big Spring Sale is full of great deals, including some very nice discounts on Amazon's own devices.

If you are looking to buy an Amazon Kindle Colorsoft and are waiting for a deal, now is the time. Amazon has put this e-reader on sale for 20% off, and it can be yours today for $244; the regular price is $279.
