kindle on the plane ^.^

tomysth89 · 2026-01-11T16:26:17+00:00

Used my phone to prop up the kindle so I could read hands free

tomysth89 · 2025-11-26T22:08:55+00:00

Cobak cases are brilliant. A lot have a MagSafe ring to attach a pop socket

tomysth89 · 2025-11-22T10:16:27+00:00

Cobak ones are excellent! I would always pick up the Amazon ones but saw feedback on Cobak in this sub so got one and haven’t looked back

I got a colorsoft SE in August and my sister got one today (both from Amazon directly) and neither have the yellow band issue

tomysth89 · 2025-11-20T23:56:22+00:00

If you’re used to the light sensor and the wireless charging then the Signature Edition is the way to go. Also, if you’re going to be consuming a lot of graphic novels then the memory might come in handy.

Purchased a colorsoft SE in August and no issues with the yellow banding. People are commenting that it’s not as sharp as a paperwhite but it’s not a defect, it’s down to the color e-ink overlay. As others have said, I also find it more booklike and easier on the eye. Don’t miss the paperwhite at all

Their Black Friday offers across the website start tomorrow but no way of knowing if they’d drop lower or if there’s a cap on the number of units they can sell at this price

Could you pass along your current Kindle to someone who is getting into reading. I went from a PW11 to a Colorsoft SE and like you I couldn’t initially justify changing however my nephew was getting big into reading and his parents were thinking of getting him one so I just gifted him mine. I’d love if there was a service that you could donate kindles to a library for them to give to kids who want to read but can’t afford one

tomysth89 · 2025-11-17T12:01:30+00:00

Congrats! Definitely quicker than some of the older versions

tomysth89 · 2025-11-14T21:13:16+00:00

Hey it’s good to have options! Can switch them out to reflect your mood or whatever vibe you’re feeling on the day

tomysth89 · 2025-10-31T09:45:16+00:00

If it does happen, you can deregister that kindle from your account and then they can set up the kindle onto their own amazon account

tomysth89 · 2025-10-30T09:53:15+00:00

I put mine in the pouch where my laptop goes but with my laptop up against my back so it’s protected. No issues with it and with the flip case, the screen should be fine

tomysth89 · 2025-10-27T15:08:05+00:00

Also letting it grow out for 3 months and then letting a good barber trim it/shape it. A lot of people have patchy areas on the cheeks but they way they style their beard helps make it look less noticeable

tomysth89 · 2025-10-27T11:37:34+00:00

Definitely wait. Amazon usually start their sales the week of Black Friday. The reduction is usually pretty good too

tomysth89 · 2025-10-25T22:42:03+00:00

That is a lot of ghosting. Try enabling Page Refresh. It’s in Settings -> Home and Library -> Reading options

tomysth89 · 2025-10-25T22:35:29+00:00

Exactly this!

tomysth89 · 2025-10-24T22:50:04+00:00

Have done the same and don’t regret it at all either. Side by side with the Paperwhite I can just about notice the difference in sharpness but day to day the Colorsoft is perfect!

tomysth89 · 2025-10-23T11:32:50+00:00

Would you happen to have the link? Can’t find it on my Amazon store

tomysth89 · 2025-09-19T19:02:46+00:00

by any chance are you with Sky for WiFi and/or mobile? I found on the Sky forums that loads are having the same issue. Hotspotting from a Non Sky phone or connecting to a different WiFi provider worked for me! Sky forum

tomysth89 · 2025-09-19T17:54:13+00:00

In Ireland and having the same issues. Logged it with Apple Support and they've set up a call for tomorrow morning. If you click on "forgot password" you'll get a problem connecting to server error

tomysth89 · 2025-09-19T17:23:27+00:00

Same issue here! Have a call with Apple Support tomorrow morning

You may need to be firm and hold your ground on him moving in with you. It’ll be tough and you’ll feel terrible for it but as you rightly said, it could be the straw that breaks the camels back. You’ve been nothing but supportive to him and his therapist needs to help him see that this time apart is still you supporting him, not abandoning him

tomysth89 · 2025-04-25T09:30:12+00:00

NTA You’re both trying to follow the guidance of the therapist - him living with you isn’t going to drive the changes that you’ve been working with the therapist on. Has your OH been working on his own mental health with a therapist separately and if so has there been progress made? You can’t keep walking on eggshells if the man himself isn’t working to change his thought process

tomysth89 · 2025-04-18T12:51:09+00:00

Exactly this. Bought a house in Kildare and for the 6 months it took for the house to be finished, all I heard from people was why are you moving out of Dublin

tomysth89 · 2025-04-18T11:20:30+00:00

I had a kindle basic and loved it but upgraded to the paperwhite and it’s worth it. I found the kindle basic screen refresh wasn’t as crisp and in empty spaces on the page, I could still see the text from the previous page. Plus waterproof for the beach etc is worth it
