Here’s something that’s kind of odd. For some reason Amazon is selling the Kindle Oasis again in the US, and it’s listed as being in new condition, not used or refurbished, and they seem to have quite a few in stock (the quantity selection box goes up to 31+). Only the 8GB version is available […]

How to Fix Kindle Disk Error Code E3 and Code E2
I came across this Kindle Disk Error Troubleshooting page among Amazon’s help articles for Kindles. I don’t remember ever hearing about disk errors being an issue with Kindles, but apparently it happens often enough for them to put up a help page about it. I thought maybe it was a Windows thing since Windows updates […]
Kindle Software Update 5.19.2 Released – New AI Features Added?
Amazon has released a new software update for all 11th and 12th gen Kindles, plus all versions of the Kindle Scribe, including the new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft. It’s been longer than usual since the last update, and the software version has jumped from 5.18.6 to 5.19.2, so there are probably a lot of changes with […]
Unregistered Kindles Show Book Covers Instead of Ads
Last week I had to factory reset my 12th gen Kindle Paperwhite because of a known bug that I intentionally activated that was causing problems. I decided to use the Kindle in an unregistered state for a while, and I’m learning all kinds of interesting things. It’s been a long time since I tried to […]
Don’t Use Emojis for Your Kindle’s Name, It Breaks Amazon’s Website
Last month I posted about a new bug that causes the home screen to go haywire on Kindles. I thought it was kind of cool and better than the ad-ridden home screen so I tried to activate the bug on purpose, and now I’m encountering all kinds of issues. If you want to avoid the […]
New Kindle Scribes Getting Send to Alexa Feature and More AI Tools
The Amazon News website posted a couple of articles today (basically the same article written slightly differently twice) about the new Kindle Scribe and Kindle Scribe Colorsoft, and it looks like some new features are expected to start rolling out soon. Like mid-February soon. One of the first things both articles point out is the […]
More Kindles and Kindle Accessories Now On Sale
Last week Amazon rolled out some pretty weak Valentine’s Day sales on Kindles, with most of the bundles shipping after Valentine’s Day because they were out of the clear case covers as soon as the sale started. Now Amazon has added some additional sales on Kindles and Kindle accessories to the list. In fact, it’s […]
Will Amazon Ever Release a 6″ Kindle with a Warm Frontlight?
It’s hard to believe, but there has never been a 6″ Kindle available with the option to use a warm frontlight. All the 6″ Kindles have only ever had basic frontlights without temperature control or no light at all. Never having a 6″ model with a warm frontlight is an odd fact that only applies […]
