As many of you know I am a big Amazon fan in most things. But they are certainly far from perfect. What we have in this instance are devices which are still perfectly functional which are being rendered virtually worthless to most people. Yes, they do not even support kf8 let alone kfx. There may well be a good business case for Amazon to end support for these devices. AFter all, there must be some cost involved in delivering the azw (mobi) format, and there are probably relatively few of these devices still being used.
The problem is the outright sneaky way in which this has been done. Common sense alone dictates a public announcement. What of someone who has bought one of these devices, no doubt very cheaply, and now can't register? A situation which could have been avoided with an announcement. What of those wanting to sell these otherwise still perfectly functional devices?
Jeff Bezos. You can and should do better than this.
