Amazon is running another sales event called Prime Big Deals Days on October 10th and 11th, so of course all Kindle ereaders are on sale again, and a Prime membership isn’t required to get in on these deals, although there are some Prime Exclusive deals on bundles.

Another Mystery Kindle Software Update Released
Amazon has released another software update for the current line of Kindles, as well the previous 10th generation models (the Paperwhite 4 and 2019 entry-level Kindle). They just tacked on another .1 to the previous update from late August so it’s probably just a minor update that fixes a bug or introduces a new mystery […]

Send to Kindle Losing MOBI Support, Probably for Real This Time
Amazon has started sending out emails to customers with a “Final Reminder” about how their Send to Kindle service will no longer support MOBI file formats (.AZW, .MOBI, .PRC) starting later this year.
