For the new Scribes:

microphone is enabled for dictation to text (when it rolls out, I'm not seeing it yet)
you can make Sticky Notes for print replica and maybe fixed layout-with-text (have not tried that yet).

Bug fixes (that I've verified:

Automatic time/date is working (sets proper time zone

There are still a couple of Theme issues, I thought one was fixed but nope.

I was hoping it would pair with generic BT page turner (foot pedal), but no luck with that yet.
I'm curious if the Kindle Click will work with non Kindle devices (for page turns, brightness control unlikely to work).
