It’s a basic Kindle, 100%.

I believe it came with 5.12.4. It’s actually a replacement for the original one that I’ve only had for seven months or so. I don’t think it’s successfully managed an update in that time, but I may be wrong. My memory isn’t great.

I posted this while on to Amazon support, who eventually caved and offered me a full refund. It’s weird, but I’m not massively happy with doing that. The original Kindle was a Christmas present from my wife that I use for at least an hour every day. I really do like these things, but given that this is the second one to go tits up in the 18 months since I first got one, I don’t think I trust a third to not do the same after eight months. And with Amazon’s attitude to them seemingly that they’re disposable, I guess I need to take the refund and see what else is out there.
