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 […]
More Kindles and Kindle Accessories Now On Sale
Last week Amazon rolled out some pretty weak Valentine’s Day sales on Kindles, with most of the bundles shipping after Valentine’s Day because they were out of the clear case covers as soon as the sale started. Now Amazon has added some additional sales on Kindles and Kindle accessories to the list. In fact, it’s […]

Kindle Scribe Colorsoft Now Stuck with Ridiculous Shipping Dates
Amazon is off to another abysmal launch with latest their flagship notetaking Kindle. I remember when Amazon first came out with the Kindle Scribe and they released it with half-finished software, and that gave it a bad reputation from the start that still hasn’t faded. Now Amazon is shooting themselves in the foot again with […]
Unusual Sale on Kindle Bundles for Valentine’s Day
Amazon currently has 26 different combinations of Kindle bundles on sale, but they don’t have a single Kindle on sale by itself, not even the previous generation Kindle Scribe or like-new Kindles. I guess that kind of makes sense for a Valentine’s Day sale, but I don’t remember them doing something quite like this before. […]
Red (Fig) Kindle Scribe Colorsoft Now Available to Order
Amazon released the new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft back on December 10th, but they’ve only been selling the standard “graphite” color with a dark bezel and back. Now the Fig Kindle Scribe Colorsoft is finally available to order with a much more colorful look, being drenched in dark red front and back. Even the stylus is […]
