I’m just cheesed that it is not Alexa-enabled. They put Alexa in a refrigerator magnet, why not this?

During my family visit in France last month, I gave my mum my Oasis 3 (my favorite Kindle with the Voyage). I preordered the Paperwhite signature bundle with the cork cover and wireless dock.
I hope it's not gonna feel like a downgrade.

Released... but still out of stock.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08KTZ8249..._hqp_erd_maljg

Also, would that wiki page be better named Paperwhite 11gen or similar?

"New paperwhite" may become misleading in a few years when another "new" paperwhite is released

How many times have they released an "All-new Kindle"?

will become, not may become. It's happened over and over.

There's a reason many people use the nicknames PW3, PW4, etc. There's very little chance amazon will ever become sensible.

It’s just what Amazon does. Resistance is futile.

New Improved Original Organic Washing Powder.

Or "Retro 1950s style sandwich toaster" or numerous other products that (a) Don't look like anything made before 2015 and (b) May be products that didn't exist in 1950. (c) Zombie brands such as Grundig, RCA, Blaupunkt, Bush, Akai etc even on products the real companies never made.

At least Amazon doesn't claim they are Retro, or Original Formula eink and no-one else used the Kindle brand earlier (I might be wrong, maybe someone made Kindle firelighters). The Smile Arrow from A to Z under their name is a little corny compared to the hidden arrow in the FedEx logo or the bear on the Matterhorn on a Toblerone packet.

Yes definitely.

Having a hunt around the wiki, this seems to be the naming convention for paperwhite wiki pages... https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Paperwhite

So the new wiki page in the first post of this thread, should be moved to the appropriately named page.

(sorry, as the newbie I don't mean to be stepping on any toes)

Well, that's one theory as to what that is.
