At this time last year, people were in an uproar over Amazon removing the option to download and transfer Kindle ebooks from their website. A lot of people swore they’d never buy another ebook from Amazon again, but I wonder how many people stuck through with that promise? Was it enough for Amazon to notice […]

Leather Case Comparison Review for Kindle Paperwhite and Colorsoft
Last year I posted a brief review of Amazon’s premium leather cover for the Kindle Paperwhite and Kindle Colorsoft, and then later in the year I ended up getting one of the plant-based leather covers too, so I thought I’d post a quick video review comparing the two. The premium leather case sells for $64.99 […]
Amazon Selling Kindle Oasis as New Again, But it Won’t Last Long
Here’s something that’s kind of odd. For some reason Amazon is selling the Kindle Oasis again in the US, and it’s listed as being in new condition, not used or refurbished, and they seem to have quite a few in stock (the quantity selection box goes up to 31+). Only the 8GB version is available […]
How to Fix Kindle Disk Error Code E3 and Code E2
I came across this Kindle Disk Error Troubleshooting page among Amazon’s help articles for Kindles. I don’t remember ever hearing about disk errors being an issue with Kindles, but apparently it happens often enough for them to put up a help page about it. I thought maybe it was a Windows thing since Windows updates […]
Kindle Software Update 5.19.2 Released – New AI Features Added?
Amazon has released a new software update for all 11th and 12th gen Kindles, plus all versions of the Kindle Scribe, including the new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft.

Unregistered Kindles Show Book Covers Instead of Ads
Last week I had to factory reset my 12th gen Kindle Paperwhite because of a known bug that I intentionally activated that was causing problems. I decided to use the Kindle in an unregistered state for a while, and I’m learning all kinds of interesting things. It’s been a long time since I tried to […]
Don’t Use Emojis for Your Kindle’s Name, It Breaks Amazon’s Website
Last month I posted about a new bug that causes the home screen to go haywire on Kindles. I thought it was kind of cool and better than the ad-ridden home screen so I tried to activate the bug on purpose, and now I’m encountering all kinds of issues. If you want to avoid the […]
New Kindle Scribes Getting Send to Alexa Feature and More AI Tools
The Amazon News website posted a couple of articles today (basically the same article written slightly differently twice) about the new Kindle Scribe and Kindle Scribe Colorsoft, and it looks like some new features are expected to start rolling out soon. Like mid-February soon. One of the first things both articles point out is the […]
