Every morning I check the product page for the new Kindle Scribe without a frontlight to see if Amazon has started taking orders for it yet (they still haven’t), and every time I can’t help but notice how unbelievably bad Amazon made the screen look in all the pictures.

New Software Features Aren’t Coming to Older Kindle Scribes

Sales Figures for New Kindle Scribes are Surprising
One week ago today, Amazon released their first notetaking Kindle with a color E Ink screen, the Kindle Scribe Colorsoft, along with a new black and white version of the Kindle Scribe with a larger 11″ screen. Both are a lot more expensive than previous gen Kindle Scribes, but the weird thing is the most […]
