edit : sale was only one day for Prime members.

I received my Kindle Scribe. I’m in love. I thought it would be bigger. Same size as my iPad Air. But the feeling to write on the Scribe is so much better than the iPad. No comparaison. I didn’t think I would really read with it, but I think I will like it. I mostly read at night, in my bed, laying on my side. I found a way to put the Scribe a corner on the mattress and holding it with one hand. I wasn’t sure to keep it. Now I’m wondering why I didn’t get one sooner. The firmware added many things to the writing experience. Great device. :

The sale seems to be over even though Spring sale is still going.

Yes, you're right.

Looks like it was a flash sale for one day, for Prime members only.

From what I've seen, overall, I'm not impressed with the Spring sale.

Yes, the deal for the Scribe was not the best of all time, but it was way better than paying full price. I was waiting for a sale to buy it. I'm a happy customer.

I got this product for my iPad Pro:

Rock Paper Pencil

It adds a removable screen protector and Pencil tips that do a lot to make it feel more natural to write and draw on iPad. I haven't really done much of either since getting it, and Scribe remains my go-to device for handwriting activities. But I do aspire to improving my drawing skills, and plan to use iPad since the apps are so much more capable.

I also use it for sheet music and music training and there's a lot less glare to contend with.

I had a screen protector called Paperlike on my iPad before. It was better. But the Apple Pencil doesn’t feel like a real pencil because of the tip. For drawing, of course the iPad is a great choice. The Samsung Galaxy S tablets too. I prefer the S pen over the Apple Pencil for writing. The Scribe is really just for reading and writing. And it feels really great. You can sketch on it, but I’m no artist when it comes to drawing!

Edit : what do you think of the Rock Paper tip? Better than the Apple one?

I'd be VERY careful about situating an ebook on the "corner on the mattress and holding it with one hand." -- Cthulhu may be watching you!

Oh, he is, always.

That said, last night, I was sitting in bed. I try not to wake up my spouse. But she didn't mind.
