Amazon has started offering some early Black Friday deals on their Kindle bundle packages for Kids, and the deals are pretty underwhelming, to be honest. I don’t know what gives but the sale prices aren’t nearly as low as they usually are; Amazon’s Prime Day prices were a lot lower. Hopefully their other Kindle deals […]

New 5.8″ Veidoo eReader with Android for $59
I came across a really unusual ebook reader on Amazon. At first I thought it might be fake, but the seller actually has a 98% positive rating and it’s being shipped by Amazon, but apparently not until the end of December, and that’s not the only odd thing about the device. First off, the Veidoo […]
