I saw this post on reddit about certain Lenovo tablets not supporting the Nook Android app, and it’s exactly the kind of problem that you’d expect to hear about when it comes to Nook and Barnes and Noble. B&N sells co-branded Lenovo tablets that come preloaded with a customized Nook app. The same Lenovo M9 […]

My Kindle Voyage Mysteriously Turned Ad-Free
I haven’t been using my Kindle Voyage much lately since the Kindle Paperwhite 6 came along, but I decided to fire it up yesterday to charge it and I noticed something odd.
