Today Amazon unveiled a bunch of new products at their annual hardware event, including several new Echo devices, some new security cameras, a new Fire TV stick, among other things, but there weren’t any new Kindle products or services mentioned at all.

Kindle Scribe on Sale for Prime Members, Up to $90 off
Amazon has the Kindle Scribe on sale again, and this is the second lowest price it has sold for since it was released last year (prices are $10 higher than they were on Prime Day back in July). It’s another Prime Exclusive deal, of course, but the prices are $75-$90 off so it’s worth picking […]
Great Deals on Refurbished Kindles at Woot
If you’re looking to get a Kindle ereader for cheap, Woot has some really good deals on refurbished Kindles and Fire Tablets right now as their main Deal of the Day.

Amazon Only Updating 10th and 11th Gen Kindles Now

With firmware version 5.16.3, the Kindle Scribe now uses MTP (Media Transfer […]
Kindle Software Update 5.16.3 Released; Older Kindles No Longer Getting Updates?
Amazon has released another software update for Kindle ereaders, but for some reason it’s not available for all the models that updates are usually available for, at least not yet. This is the second Kindle update that Amazon has released this month, which is highly unusual. There must be a serious bug or security issue […]
Is Amazon Going to Release a New Kindle Later This Year?
I’ve been seeing a lot of people asking if Amazon is going to be releasing a new Kindle at some point this year, especially after they announced a new hardware event in September. The thing is Amazon always has an event in September to announce new products, and Kindles are almost never included in those […]
