It’s been eighteen months since Amazon released the Kindle Scribe, and I still can’t figure out their motivation behind it, or why it’s on sale all the time at what seems to be unusually low prices. The Kindle Scribe is the only Kindle currently on sale at Amazon, and it starts at $239 for the […]

The Mysterious Recurring Kindle Scribe Sale
I noticed over the past week that Amazon has been putting the Kindle Scribe on sale, but they’re only doing it for maybe a few hours each day. I don’t understand the point of putting it on sale off and on each day, but it’s what they’ve been doing. I was going to post about […]
Kindle Scribe Now $100 Off, and Kids Kindles On Sale Too
After criticizing Amazon earlier in the week for not putting any Kindles on sale during their Big Spring Sales event, they added a few deals on Kindles over the past couple days. I guess they just didn’t want to reveal all their sales at once. Now the Kindle Scribe can be had for up to […]
Kindle Scribe Sales Numbers Keep Declining Rapidly

Software Update 5.16.6.1 Released for Kindle Scribe
Amazon has released another Kindle software update for the second time this month, but this time the update is only available for the Kindle Scribe. They tacked on a “.1” to the previous update so now the current software version for the Kindle Scribe is 5.16.6.1, while the 10th and 11th generation Kindles are still […]
Kindle Scribe Now $85 off for Prime Members
We’re four days into 2024 and Amazon already has the Kindle Scribe on sale for the first time of the year after it was on sale all of November and most of December (it’s getting to the point where it’s on sale more often than it’s not). During the sale, the Kindle Scribe can be […]
Kindle Scribe Now On Sale at Lowest Price Ever for Black Friday
Amazon has started rolling out some of their early Black Friday Deals on Kindle ereaders, as they usually do this time of year, and they have the Kindle Scribe marked down to its lowest price ever (when purchased new). The prices are $15 lower than they were during Prime Day, which is kind of surprising. […]
