They were cut off from the store some time ago, and now they can no longer download e-books either: Amazon is rolling back support for older Kindles.

    My reader formats epubs really terribly, the text is almost always way too small, and requires some grotesque horizontal scrolling for most books.

    On the other hand .txt just works, and handles resizing just fine

        I really don’t care. I’ve tried several different ways to get it to cooperate with epubs, and at a certain point it isn’t worth it when I already have a viable solution.

      An eReader’s literally only job is to format, reflow, render and display ePubs. If you have one that can’t do that, then it is a fancy coaster at best.

        Ok? I’m still going to read books as .txt files anyways, because it does so.
