My PW4 got the popup and the What's new. About as useless as you can expect with Recaps mentioned and the usual nameless performance, bug fixes, etc. boilerplate.

Looking at both Scribe what's new on the firmware download page, the Scribe didn't even get Recaps just the boilerplate bits.

Version 5.18.1 – March 2025

Here's what's new:

Performance improvements, bug fixes, and other general enhancements.

Version 5.17.3 – January 2025

Side Panel Margin: You can now open a side panel margin to write notes in eBooks with enhanced typesetting and Word documents. Choose between docked or overlay settings, and tap the caret to adjust its width.

AI Notebook Tools: You can now access AI Notebook tools in UK, Canada, and Australia.

Performance improvements, bug fixes, and other general enhancements.
Edit: I was looking at the Amazon.ca firmware page, looking at Amazon.com, the Scribe what's new does show recaps.

Here's what's new:

Recaps for Books in Series: You can now access short recaps for thousands of bestselling English language Kindle books in series you have purchased or borrowed. Refresh your memory on what happened in a previously read book prior to starting a new book in series.

Performance improvements, bug fixes, and other general enhancements.

Which makes it seem rather odd that the What's new item on my PW4 did show Recaps. On a more weird note which had me checking my screenshot, the What's new item has disappeared from that screen. Was it a one shot or time dependent? Ooops, they're in Canada and that's an American only item?
