Here’s a list of 10 free highly-rated Kindle ebooks for the weekend. Amazon also still has Kindle ereaders on sale for another day or two. The Kindle Paperwhite is at its lowest price ever at $79 for the 8GB version and $99 for 32GB. Please note the free Kindle books listed below are free as […]
Kindles No Longer Have Banner Ads After Update
Earlier this week Amazon released a new software update, version 5.13.7, for Kindle ereaders that changes some of the user interface elements and navigation options. One surprising change that seems to have gone relatively unnoticed so far (I’ve yet to see a single comment about it) is the fact that ad-supported Kindles no longer show […]
Kobo Elipsa eReader Bundle Now Sold on Amazon
There’s now another way to purchase the new Kobo Elipsa ereader and notebook that was released toward the end of June. In the US, the Kobo Elipsa was only sold from Kobo’s website initially. Then they started selling it on Walmart’s website last month (but not in stores), and now another seller has listed the […]
New Kindle Software Update 5.13.7 Brings User Interface Changes
Amazon has released a new firmware update for Kindle e-readers that brings some fairly big changes to the user interface.

Kindles on Sale Again for up to $60 Off – Why So Many Sales?

I normally wouldn’t jump to that conclusion but three separate sales in less […]
Price Drop on Onyx Boox Nova3 Color
Onyx recently dropped the price of their new Nova3 Color with a 7.8-inch color E Ink screen from $419 to $399. I really doubt $20 off is enough to convince anyone to pull the trigger on it when it so expensive to begin with (that’s only 5% off), but Onyx rarely lowers prices on current […]

The Kobo Clara HD and Kobo Nia are marked down from the usual retailers, including Kobo.com, Walmart and Amazon. The Clara HD is being sold for $99 with free shipping and the Kobo Nia […]
New Software Update for Kobo eReaders, Version 4.28
It’s time for another round of software updates for Kobo’s lineup of ebook readers. It’s been 6 months since Kobo released a software update for anything but the Kobo Elipsa, and that’s a lot longer than usual for Kobo. This new firmware update is version 4.28.18220 and it’s available for pretty much every Kobo model […]
