@slackline for mine it works. to be honest i never used the kindle store in my kindle, i only ever copied files directly to it by plugging it to the computer or used the kindle email function which is quite convenient. i'll have to see what happens!

@foobarry @thomasfuchs i don't know but i guess it's likely that at least some use can still be had out of them. ideally someone finds out how to install something else on them and keep using them, but i've never checked if that's possible

@thomasfuchs idk what the new ones are like, but mine is old enough that i can plug it into my computer and drag books to it lol

@m750 @thomasfuchs i think you can still email ebooks to your kindle after this. you just have to download or buy them elsewhere

@thomasfuchs it doesn't seem like this will prevent people from emailing books (bought or downloaded elsewhere) to their kindles, no? it's a pretty simple operation and if anyone (like me) is still holding on to a 2008 kindle it's worth it to learn it
