I think Kindle Collections has been a bit broken for years. It gets more broken if you sync two very different kinds of eink ereaders.

It was a shame when they made it that a PC can't set them.

It's wrong that they are mostly disabled if an ereader is unregistered.

Kindles are crippled by Amazon's excessive attempt to make them "Cloud Clients" under Amazon control. See particularly series metadata and the annotations of PDFs on the Scribe.

Later GUIs seem to progressively make the Library view more confusing and awkward. Also on the PW3 I have to now enable Whispernet (spyware?) to be able to get newly purchased books. The Send to Device only seems to work on models with no so called Whispernet.

I'll keep my existing Kindles for the odd ebook I want only on Amazon, but I won't buy another. I'll just use an app in the future (when the Kindles are dead) on the rare case I have to have an exclusive Amazon title.
