Hope it stays that way. One scam is to sell it and then it is reported missing and the wiFi goes away whenAmazon blacklists it.

The money from the sale of the device + a new device via insurance.
It's unfortunately quite a common scam with things like mobiles phones.

Or the scammer took a box off the porch and the receiver realizes they have not got their Kindle. They call Amazon, Amazon deregisters the user and black list the Kindle.

This has been a popular scam whenever a new Kindle is released.

Goodreads integration hasn't been released yet. That's one of the "coming soon" features that will added in a later software update.

It is not on any of them yet. I couldn't find it either and started looking at the Amazon website. I found a blurb that says GoodReads integration is coming soon. So it is a future feature!
