“ Coming Soon: Kindle Scribe provides regular, free software updates that include new features. In the coming months, Kindle Scribe will add more writing tools, including new brush types and copy/paste tools, additional notebook organization options, and the ability to send documents to Kindle Scribe directly from within Microsoft Word. ”
So, hopefully they haven’t given up on it. |
No I don't think so.
Must be some A/B testing going on with the web page.
It's not clear what syncing a Notebook should mean, other than automatically updating any notebooks you have edited, and overwriting changes made on another device since your local copy refreshed.
If a user insists on using 2 devices, it behooves them to sync before editing, sync after editing and not do simultaneous editing.
It seems not unlike two people reading the same book on two kindles linked to the same account at the same time. Latest change to a given annotation will 'win' (I think) but it is it annotation timestamp or sync timestamp? In any case I would expect issues, and Amazon can't read minds to know what your intent is.
If it hurts when you do it, don't do it.
