Can the Kindle Scribe Replace the Yellow Notepad? Notes on Taking Notes With Amazon’s New Device

Geek Wire

By Todd Bishop

December 9, 2022

For many years, I’ve tried various tech alternatives to my trusty yellow notepad: Microsoft Word and Google Docs, OneNote on a Surface Tablet, Evernote on the web and smartphone, Samsung Galaxy Note Plus with stylus, etc … The writing experience feels almost as satisfying as writing on paper. There is just enough friction on the e-ink screen to create the feeling that you’re scribbling. Any lag in the ink is so small that it’s barely noticeable. Especially compared with an LCD screen on a standard tablet, this feels almost like the real thing.

Best Kindles of 2022: From Paperwhite and Oasis to Kindles for Kids

Evening Standard

By Stuart Pritchard

December 9, 2022

I like books. In my many years as a pretend travel journalist, my constant companion on those long-haul flights was always a pair of noise-cancelling headphones with which to drown out the casual cacophony of other passengers and make me look even more unapproachable, and a good book. Then, one birthday, my in-laws presented me with a Kindle and, despite also being a pretend tech journalist, I wasn’t sure … However, what it did give me was the ability to travel with an endless supply of e-ink based entertainment without developing a hernia from heaving too many hardbacks, so it wasn’t long before I was sold into the Kindle story.
