Why Don’t eReaders Support Bluetooth Page Turners?
Pretty much all dedicated ereaders have Bluetooth built-in these days, but most of them don’t support connecting remote control page turners using Bluetooth. Some devices, like Onyx’s Android ereaders, have supported Bluetooth page turners for a long time now, but Kindles, Kobos, Nooks and other ereaders still don’t offer that feature. They all have Bluetooth […]
Kobo Should Add More Wireless Transfer Options for eBooks
I’ve seen some complaints about Kobo’s lack of options when it comes to transferring ebooks to Kobo ereaders wirelessly, and I think it’s a valid criticism.

Given the fact that Onyx’s devices run Android, there are a lot more ways to transfer content that with a typical ereader like a Kindle or Kobo. […]
Why is Amazon So Bad at Recommending Kindle eBooks?
Do you ever find the ebook recommendations on Kindle ereaders and Amazon’s website useful? I used to check the Kindle ebooks section of Amazon’s website regularly, but now it’s just row after row of useless recommendations that I could care less about. It’s the same story on the homepage of Kindle ereaders. It seems like […]
Another Kindle Bug – Document Covers No Longer Displaying on Lockscreen
There’s yet another Kindle bug going around. This is at least the third one this year, along with the blank screen issue and the disappearing notes bug on the Kindle Scribe. This new issue is relatively minor but annoying. Basically, documents are no longer showing covers on the lockscreen when the Kindle is turned off. […]
