![]() Last night I wanted to throw my Kindle Fire. The Pdoc cover issue is getting worse. It took me 3 Kindle clear data tries and restarts to get them all to show. I really do need that PW so I don't have to deal with it anymore. It looks like Amazon isn't going to fix it. |

![]() I think that when I deregister it, the KF treats the Pdocs as it would Sideloaded books. That's why I think the covers show up. Anyway now I don't even bother with covers anymore. I've been slowly replacing them with Amazon bought copies or just deleting them when I'm finished reading them. Btw Amazon's Mturk is a great way to make extra money for books ![]() |

![]() When you clear the Kindle data app. It forces the covers to regenerate. However if they are having server problems like last night. It takes a few tries. I clear the Kindle data app then sync twice and wait then Restart the KF. It works almost everytime but a pain to do. |

I was at Best Buy over the weekend and picked up a K4B. I gave my KT (3G) to MIL, who previously had the K4S. I'm still waiting for the KPW to be delivered.
I do find the K4B sharper that the KT I had been using. |

I just ordered a $69 kindle too, my very first Kindle! I even started a thread about it, because I wasn't sure if I ordered the 2011 or 2012 model. Can't wait to become part of the Kindle-family and finaly take advantage of those super cheap books, such as $0.99 (we don't have that in Holland

It's here, my new Kindle. And may I say: Wow Amazon, that was super-fast

I had a chance to play with one at Best Buy yesterday & wow! It's much lighter & much whiter!! I was surprised at how much lighter (weight wise) it is over the grey/silver one.

The difference is the Silver feels like holding metal. The Black feels lighter because it has a more plastic feel but yes they do weigh the same but the feel of holding them is different. The back has a nice rubber feel like the Kindle Fire while the Silver has that gritty finish on the back.

I thought they felt like they weighed the same but I agree the black 'felt' better. After using it for two days I am really impressed. I don't have to face close to my lamp in bed to read and the page turning seems smoother. I struggled to not drop the previous one when I tried to read and turn with one hand.
I am also impressed with customer service. Mine shipped a day late and so they bumped it up to a faster shipping method than I had paid for at no cost. I was to get it in 7 business days and I got it in less than 24 hours. I feel like my reading experience cannot be improved now. :-) |
