Missed that. I guess that has to do with what happens when a PDF is "sent to" a Scribe.
I've never "sent" anything to a kindle via amazon. What has traditionally happened when a personal PDF document has been "sent" to a kindle? (Where "sent" includes "email".) I know from reading that PDFs "sent" to Scribes get converted to some proprietary amazon format. |

The wavelength of light emitted by nitride LEDs can be finely tuned. It's possible that the new LEDs emit light at wavelengths to match the dyes in the colour filter layer, which might be more efficient than generic white LEDs.

And the amazon tradition of confusing model nomenclature lives on.

I was reading the TechRadar article and was getting very confused since the author seems to have little knowledge of any ereaders other than Amazon's products. And then there were items that read as sheer bunkum. Anyone able to translate the first sentence of the following paragraph into a comprehensible form?

I'm guessing that they can control the wavelengths (as pdurrant mentioned) and that the new/updated layers have been tuned for the refractive index of those wavelengths. The lightguide gel layer might be better tuned to better focus the light up and down instead of just kinda going up and down.
