Also thanks for the side by side. It makes me want a Scribe less than before. The only usecase for me would be PDF files. For novels the lines on the Scribe are a bit too long for me. And increasing the font size would defeat the need for a bigger screen. Maybe I will wait until my eyes need a larger print or the Scribe gets a two column option.
It does take some adjustment, but I appreciate the versatility of a larger screen.

Even with larger margins and text, there is more text per page so I find it as comfortable as on small screen. I don't think 2 column would be helpful for Portrait but surely it is needed for Landscape.

Eventually, when they sort out issues with Print Replica, it will be nice to read PDFs (converted to PR) more comfortably and have that functionality for 'PDF' personal documents in the apps as well (sync of reading position, annotations etc.). And I have a number of Kindle books in that format that I'd like to read on Scribe.

I'm starting to get a little impatient for the update. But adding Print Replica support is the biggest change on Kindle in years, and it will be better supported across the Kindle platform than PDF is.
