Amazon Ending Support for Older Kindles: Full List of Affected Devices

• rmason 6mo ago
  I've got an older Kindle and this annoys me greatly. I don't use it a lot, maybe read one or two books a year on it. It works fine and the fact Amazon expects me to retire my perfectly good working device and hand them money for a new one is ridiculous. They are likely to lose me as a buyer of books on Kindle I will make the effort to buy more books elsewhere. Does anyone know of a Kindle equivalent? Or has Amazon locked down the format to prevent that?

    You can still use it, you just cannot browse the store from the device anymore, afaik. I never did that anyway, I always sent books from my browser to the kindle, which should still work.

      Nor factory reset it. Reports suggest this will now brick the unit.

  Weird to see Kindle 1st generation on here, when support for my 3rd generation kindle was ended a couple years ago?
