So can we return to the subject of this thread: what's in the 3.3 update?

No one knows. I have it and have no idea.

Is there anything new in Settings? I was thinking it is about time Kindle let you switch UI languages, as there are French and German Kindle stores now.

Check Experimental, also. Maybe they enabled the microphone for something.

I wonder why my kindle still has 3.2.1 version. It has connection by wi-fi. Sync succesfully. Maybe v3.3 is available only for U.S and Canada customers?

I'm in USA and my KSO WiFi is still at 3.2.1 also. I suspect they are doing their usual rollout of new FW in stages.

I checked the Free Library of Philadelphia and they're showing Kindle books available as well.

So did they change 'Device E-mail' to 'Send-to-Kindle E-mail'? Wow, I can't wait!

At present there is no way to view the lending status of a library book on Kindle itself (short of launching the web browser & going to MYK page). So maybe they are adding some additional information that will tell you how many days are left, etc. That would be helpful for 'lend this ebook' as well.

The other thing that could be fixed is to make it so that Kindle browser can actually be used to check out library books and initiate delivery. Right now it gets stuck because of the 'no new browser windows' limitation.

Send-to-Kindle E-mail

You can send documents to your Kindle by using the e-mail address below. To change your settings, go to: www.amazon.com/myk. For UK customers, go to: www.amazon.co.uk/myk.

Not even any indication that the book is a library book. A library book folder would be nice, along with dates (checked out and expires on) and the ability to return it early from the Kindle.
