I’ve got a paperlite edition but passed my my old one to my younger daughter. It’s linked to mine.
However hers will be defunct from 17th August this year. I just received an email from Amazon. This is the first paragraph:
“An update about shopping on your Kindle.
Hello,
Thank you for continuing to use one of our earliest Kindle E-readers. While you can continue reading on your E-reader, as of August 17, 2022, store functionality will no longer be available. This change only affects certain E-readers introduced 10+ years ago (listed below). As of the 17 August you will no longer be able to browse, buy or borrow books directly from these Kindle E-readers. As always, you'll be able to browse, buy and borrow books on other supported devices or through amazon.co.uk/ebooks.“
What are your thoughts on this?
I was horrified. Talk about a ‘throwaway society’. Defunct working Kindles all over the world this summer! I thought big companies are virtue signalling left right and centre about sustainability.
Seems the lure of (already huge) profits is too good an opportunity to miss....
What is a reasonable minimum spend for an online grocery delivery??
When will this wind ever stop?!
Recommendations please, for a stopover on the way to Loch Tay
