This thread has taken a rather disturbing turn, cleaning deep fat fryers, antics with his Peter....

I'm glad it was reopened.

You might want to wait a couple of hours. Then you can have hot bread.

Perhaps we could discuss the false rumour (I'm just making it up now) that Amazon will be launching a 300ppi full-colour liquavista-based Kindle on 1st April 2016?
My understanding is they'll be building one based on Q-carbon, which will be impossible to scratch (being 60% harder than diamond) but also really heavy (being denser than diamond too). It will draw you in to books with its sheer (ferro)magnetism. And, of course, it will be glow in the dark. (Sure, the glow is of electrons, but let's not let that get in the way of the wild fantasising!)

(In reality, this stuff, though very new and awesome, is many years from commercialization.)

Really I was just pointing out the silliness of the whole thing. I live in a retirement home and one of the guys here has a couple of cute grandkids that are always coming over and running around playing. I enjoy them. A couple of the grumps living here always complain about them. I always defend them. Sort of like I did in that post.

My fantasy about the next Kindle is that it will be exactly like the existing Kindle. It can't get much better. Of course I've said that about every other Kindle since the Kindle Keyboard and they proved me wrong every time. But I'm sure this time it's as good as it can get.

Difficult to see why I might wonder

Also, the #1 reason to ask is because it was amusing. We need to do something now that we can no longer actually anticipate a new Kindle release, why not hilariously misunderstand people?

Why do you believe that? The PW3 was released on 30th June 2015; why would there not be a "refresh" at a similar time next year?

Nobody knows. If Amazon secured supplies of a splendid new screen technology for production in (say) February, I doubt that they'd wait until October to launch it.

NB I have no inside knowledge at all, this is entirely idle speculation, aka fantasy.

I think it's hard to say whether the Kindles will be refreshed. Sales on dedicated ereaders are down from what I've read and the current devices are excellent. I wouldn't be surprised if they're around for a while just as they are.

Of course Amazon might decide that refreshing them generates interest so I could be wrong. The only thing I ever learned about marketing was while selling Fuller Brush door to door back in the early 1960s and I nearly starved.
