Here’s something I hadn’t noticed before. If you didn’t know that Kobo’s ereaders support Adobe DRM for ebooks, you certainly wouldn’t learn that fact by visiting Kobo’s website and reading their product pages and FAQs.

Amazon has released a software update, version 5.17.3, for both the 2022 and 2024 Kindle Scribe that adds a new way to write notes within ebooks and Word documents, and it also adds a new visually-distracting icon on the screen that can’t be removed (how fun).
