Seattle -- Amazon.com Inc. will soon offer a Kindle electronic book reader with a larger screen for U.S. consumers, sources say.

The unidentified sources said the bigger-screen Kindle may be ready for distribution as early as the 2009 Christmas holiday season, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday. Details regarding the new size of the screen were not reported.
