Earlier in the week I posted about a sale on the Kindle Colorsoft and several Kindle bundles, and at the time Amazon didn’t have the regular Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite on sale, but now both of those are on sale as well, along with the previous gen Kindle Scribe and some Kindle covers and accessories.

Fig Kindle Scribe Colorsoft Still Not Shipping Anytime Soon
Something weird is going on with the release of the new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft, particularly the version that comes in the fig color (some say it’s purple, some say it’s red; whatever color it is it’s “fig”).
