I wonder if Amazon has decided to phase out the 8GB version of the Kindle Paperwhite, or maybe they’re just having stock issues, but it’s been out of stock for a while now. You can still order the 8GB Kindle Paperwhite from Amazon for $139.99, but the webpage says it isn’t expected to ship for […]

Kindle Unlimited Gift Subscriptions Now Cheaper for 12 Months
I just noticed that Amazon has lowered the prices of their Kindle Unlimited gift subscriptions for the 6 and 12-month terms.

Amazon Offers the Fewest Kindle Models of All eReader Brands

Then it was followed up by three generations of the Kindle Oasis, and now I guess the Kindle Scribe is supposed to be the premium […]
Be Warned, the Kindle Paperwhite’s Screen Scratches Easily

He also predicts […]

Woot has some older Kindles available again, including all three versions of the Kindle Oasis. They also […]

People often ask how a Kindle for Kids is different from a regular Kindle, especially when the former is on sale, so I’ll explain the differences and advantages of both in this post and in the video below. The truth is there’s no actual difference between them. Either version of the Kindle can be used […]
Kindle Software Update 5.16.7 Released, But What’s Changed?
Amazon has started rolling out another software update for all 10th and 11th generation Kindles, as well as the Kindle Scribe. The new firmware version is 5.16.7 , and it’s available to download from the Kindle Software Updates page at Amazon if you want to manually install the update now, but there’s really no compelling […]
