The new Scribe will only be released in December and so far it doesn’t look like any reviewer has received an early unit, so no one knows yet, although I would be surprised if it were any different than the other new models.

Have the new Kindles been released in the EU? With the R2DR directive, has Amazon released any documentation?

The only time i used the buttons was when there wasn't a touch screen. |

Nowadays there's even the possibility to combine buttons with wacom and use a wacom pen instead of your finger to navigate (see the Hanvon N10). I'm all for sharp screens, contrast and efficiency of use. I don't care about thinness, form factor and some black brick aesthetics. I think the early Kindles looked better than modern ones anyway. |

I do agree on having buttons, it wouldnt be a problem for me to go back to a full button no touch like kindle 4/5, especially if it means less layers, and being able to grip with some fingers on the screen would be nice... but i found out i don't miss them as much as i thought when i went from kindle 4 to pw4, what i actually missed the most was the recessed screen. If i had a request at this point, i don't really care about the two buttons solution adopted by kobo or oasis, rather than those i'd like to have back those lateral ones like kindle 4.

Hi, I've just bought a new Kindle basic to replace my PW 11th Gen. I'm 77 and have arthritis in both hands and like the lighter weight of the basic. To keep all my books as they are currently, would it be possible to simply copy the contents of the 'documents' folder from my PW to my new basic using my windows desktop PC?
PS. My new basic hasn't arrived yet Last edited by idgaf2day; 10-29-2024 at 06:04 AM. Reason: Added PS. |
