Ten Reasons to get the Kindle Colorsoft

As you may have heard, Amazon is releasing its first color Kindle called the Kindle Colorsoft on October 30, 2024.

The device is a 7-inch tablet that use Kaleido 3 does not appear to be competing with Remarkable Paper Pro, but rather Kobo, who makes a color 7” called the Kobo Libra Colour. The Kobo Colour out in April 2024 and have been slowly converting Kindle readers to Kobo readers.

Further proof, the Kindle Scribe was Amazon’s as an answer to Kobo’s Kobo Elipsa, which is a 10” device for notetaking (but also the ability to read Kobo books).

reMarkable Paper Pro Review

When I first saw the Remarkable Paper Pro online in early September 2024, I dismissed this because of how expensive it was. It’s about $600, and part of that price includes the required pen. Plus, I was massively disappointed in Boox Note Air 3 C due to the poor color representation of Kaleido 3.

After watching some comic book pages on the RPP, I was definitely interested buying this as my digital comic book reader! Unfortunately, as an e-reader, it absolutely sucks. The Remarkable only supports PDF and ePub, with no support for Kindle Books or CBR (the popular comic book archive format).

Everclear at First Avenue (20 Oct 2024)

American rock band Everclear recently sold out First Avenue’s mainroom on Sunday night. The band was incredibly thankful and was very happy to see so many fans packed the First Avenue’s dancefloor. Band leader Art Alexakis, said that the last time they sold out in Minneapolis was at the height of their popularity, around 1996… so it felt like a return to the good old days of radio hit songs.
