I just noticed that the Kindle Oasis is available to purchase from Amazon again, and multiple versions are in stock, not just the base model. The 8GB Kindle Oasis with and without lockscreen ads is available to order right now, and they also have the 32GB version in the Champagne Gold color both with and […]

Kindle Paperwhite vs Kobo Clara BW Comparison Video
Last week I posted a comparision review between the base Kindle and the new Kobo Clara BW because they both have the same size 6″ screen and a similar overall design, but features-wise the Clara BW is more comparable to the Kindle Paperwhite. The Kindle Paperwhite has a larger 6.8″ E Ink screen with an […]
Will Amazon Release a Kindle Oasis with a Color E Ink Screen?
The Kindle Oasis wasn’t the first ereader to have an offset design with page buttons on one side of the screen, but it was the device that popularized that type of design, along with the 7″ screen size. Now just about every ereader company sells their own Oasis clone with a similar asymmetrical design and […]
How to Borrow Library eBooks Directly on Kindles (Video)
Last December I posted about how it’s now possible to borrow library ebooks on Kindles using the new updated web browser, but I still don’t think most people know that library ebooks can work that way on Kindles, and Amazon doesn’t advertise that fact anywhere. Previously you always had to use a seperate device to […]
Kindle vs Kobo Clara BW and Clara Colour Comparison Review

I recently posted about how Kindles are lagging behind the competition, and this is good example of that. There’s only a $10 price difference between the Kindle and […]
Get 3 Months of Kindle Unlimited for Free (YMMV)
I saw a forum post about Amazon giving away 3 months of Kindle Unlimited for free so I went and checked it out and the promotion is indeed available for me too, and I don’t have Prime so it appears to be available for regular accounts. You can check the main Kindle Unlimited landing page […]
Kindle eReaders are Lagging Behind, Again
Somehow Kindles continue to dominate the ereader market, and yet if you follow the industry closely it’s readily apparent that Kindles are the least innovative and the slowest to change and get upgrades compared to other brands. All the other main ereader companies now offer devices with color E Ink screens in addition to ereaders […]
Something About the Kindle Scribe Doesn’t Add Up
It’s been eighteen months since Amazon released the Kindle Scribe, and I still can’t figure out their motivation behind it, or why it’s on sale all the time at what seems to be unusually low prices. The Kindle Scribe is the only Kindle currently on sale at Amazon, and it starts at $239 for the […]
