Amazon is retiring support for its earliest Kindle hardware on May 20, 2026, severing those devices from Amazon's account services, cloud library, and store access. The cutoff affects the first five Kindle generations — but figuring out which side of that line your device falls on isn't always...

Wireless File Transfer on CrossPoint: Two Methods Worth Knowing About
The CrossPoint firmware on the Xteink X4 includes a built-in file transfer server that's easy to overlook but genuinely useful once you've set it up. There are two separate modes available under the File Transfer menu, and they cover quite different scenarios. Both methods expose the same...
Steven G. HarmsOK #bookstodon and #ereader gurus. I plan to read "Steve Jobs in Exile: The Untold Story of NeXT and the Remaking of an American Visionary by Geoffrey Cain .
I have a BOOX reader and a Kindle.
I do not want a physical book (small print/old eyes) and at 400pp it's no good on the subway.
So what's a technically-capable Fedi-positive person to do?
Why Boox Is Moving Away from EMR — While Everyone Else Is Moving Toward It

steve mookie kongI love to read, but don't do it enough. The other day I picked up a Xteink X4 for $69 and I have been using it a bunch -- I'm currently reading H.P. Lovecraft's Short Fiction from Standard Ebooks. This reader is so tiny and easy to carry around that it is a great way to not doom scroll and just read a good book.
I replaced the stock OS with CrossPoint Reader which makes it a lot faster and easier to use (it was easy to switch over). One of the nice things is that there is a mode that turns the reader into an access point, I connect to it and there is a tiny web server on the reader itself that allows me to upload books, manage books and manage the reader's settings.
Here's a picture of it next to my iPhone 16 Pro and a Hot Wheels car.

sayzardXteink X3, a 3.7inch mini e-ink reader with magsafe
Xteink X3는 3.7인치 크기의 미니 전자잉크(e-ink) 리더기로, 아이폰에 마그세이프(MagSafe) 방식으로 부착할 수 있다. 이 기기는 소셜 미디어 사용을 줄이고 독서 습관을 늘리는 데 도움을 줄 수 있으며, Wi-Fi를 통한 파일 전송과 오픈 소스 펌웨어 CrossPoint 지원이 특징이다. 다만 USB-C 포트가 없고, 도서관 전자책과의 호환성 문제 등 몇 가지 제약이 있다. 전자잉크 디스플레이를 활용한 새로운 형태의 휴대용 독서 기기로서 주목받고 있다.
