I thought if anyone would appreciate this goof, it’s the readers of TeleRead.
This came up in a Google search earlier today when I was looking for Kindle Paperwhite reviews. Anyone see the problem?
And now back to your regularly scheduled important digital publishing news. 🙂
Paperwhite is an electrophor, black reader.
It took me a couple of minutes to see what you meant. Here’s an appropriately fake response.
“Wow! That Paperwhite pictured has a color screen. Why hasn’t Amazon told us about their bold new leap forward with ePaper. And I thought the new Paperwhite was just black and white like all the others.”
I don’t know about that best-ever claim either. The new models lack one handy feature of my Kindle 3. I can provide my own screen lighting. What I can’t do is add text-to-speech to a model that lacks it.
You guys got it.
I like your fake response, @Michael. And lots of people share your feelings about TTS and the Paperwhite.
What I particularly liked was that it was a picture of a Nook beside a Kindle article. So many things wrong with that.
Best eReader evahhhhhh. I’m not even going to bother reading the CNN review.
