Back in April, two software updates ago, Amazon added the option to read ebooks using a two-column layout in landscape mode on the Kindle Scribe. The Kindle Scribe is the only Kindle to support two-column landscape mode. It’s something Kindle apps and Fire Tablets have had for a long time, but this is the first […]
Kindle Scribe Sale, up to $75 Off; Kids Kindles on Sale Too
Amazon has the Kindle Scribe on sale, and both versions of the kids Kindles are on sale again too. All other Kindles are still full price so you’d be better off buying one of the kids bundles during this sale than paying full price for the same Kindles without any extras. The Kindle Scribe can […]

PocketBook has been making some questionable decisions lately when it comes to releasing new products, and their new 10.3-inch InkPad X Pro is the latest head-scratcher.

Going Back to Paper Books After Using an eReader?
It would be interesting to know how often people ultimately decide to go back to reading paper books after using an ereader. Obviously I’m a bit biased in this regard, but I haven’t wanted anything to do with paper books in a long, long time. I don’t like all the space they take up, and […]
Is the Kindle Oasis 3 the Last Kindle with Page Buttons?
Looking over the history of Kindles, Amazon has always offered a Kindle with page buttons since the very beginning. But now it’s starting to look like that might not continue for much longer if they’re never going to release a new Kindle Oasis. A lot of people have been expecting a new Kindle Oasis to […]
All Kindles on Sale with Prime Day Prices Again
Yesterday I posted about the Kindle Paperwhite Kids being on sale at Best Buy, and the price is the same as it was for Prime Day last month. I guess I should’ve waited one more day because now Best Buy has all Kindles on sale with Prime Day prices, and a Prime membership or Best […]
