Amazon currently has some Kindle accessories on sale for a limited time (who knows how long that is), and it’s not something they do very often so you might want to check it out. Some of the deals are actually pretty good, and they’re on Amazon’s official covers, which tend to hold up well. The […]

Kindles on Sale with Prime Day Prices Again, But Not at Amazon
If you missed out Amazon’s Prime Day deals on Kindle ereaders last month, there’s still time to get Kindles on sale at the same prices, and an Amazon Prime membership is not required for this sale. All current Kindles are currently on sale at Best Buy with the same discounts as Prime Day. This happens […]
Insight Into Potential New Kindle Features in Future Updates
Amazon’s software updates for Kindle ereaders have been pretty uninspired lately, with few changes being made and long-standing bugs not getting fixed (like sideloaded content getting deleted and custom font settings getting reset), but it looks like they might be making some pretty big changes to annotations soon. Jhowell over at MobileRead has a history […]
Current Kindles Don’t Offer Enough Reasons to Upgrade
One thing about Kindle ereaders that’s kind of unique (and strange) is the fact that newer models don’t offer very many upgrades if you’re coming from an older model, even going back as much as 10 years. When it comes to other types of electronic gadgets, most companies are trying to get people to upgrade […]
Kindle Software Update Released, with Changes to Your Lists
It’s that time again. Amazon’s Kindle ereaders are getting another round of software updates, and they’re getting a bit carried away with decimal points on this one. The new firmware version is 5.16.10.0.1, and it’s available for all 10th and 11th generation Kindles, as well as the Kindle Scribe. That covers all Kindles released over […]
Kindle Scribe On Sale for Only $235, Refurbished
Last week Amazon had the Kindle Scribe on sale for its lowest price ever at $234.99 for Prime Day, and while that sale has ended, you can still get a Kindle Scribe for that same price. Amazon currently has certified refurbished Kindle Scribes on sale, and the 16GB version is $234.99, which is $75 off […]
Is Amazon Going to Release a Kindle Scribe 2 Later This Year?
Over on Amazon’s website, the 64GB version of the Kindle Scribe is listed as “currently unavailable”, and the page says, “We don’t know when or if this item will be back in stock.” Some people will inevitably jump to the conclusion that that means the Kindle Scribe is about to be discontinued for a newer […]
Is Kindle Scribe to Blame for Meager Kindle Sales?
Something changed with Amazon’s approach to putting Kindles on sale late last year when they only took $20 off the Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite for their vaunted Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. Since then, Kindles have been going on sale less frequently than they used to, and when they do go on sale the […]
