Review Date: May 2024 – Review unit purchased from Walmart Overview The Kobo Libra Colour was released on April 30th, 2024.

The Kindle Oasis Has Been Edited Out of Existence
It started last fall when the Kindle Oasis started to periodically show up as “currently unavailable” on Amazon’s website, and then by December it was no longer available to purchase in the US, with some exceptions when a few would show up again occasionally.

E Ink Carta 1300 is Not a Worthwhile Upgrade
Ever since some obscure ereader from China showed up with a new Carta 1300 screen, people have been clamouring for ereaders to come out with the new “upgraded” screen technology that’s supposed to be faster and have better contrast. Well, once again, I hate to break the news to you, but there’s no contrast improvement […]
