The demo video is great, I would consider putting it higher up on the page and possibly on autoplay. I wonder when Amazon will integrate LLM into the native reader. Nice work!

Thanks! Yeah the landing page might need some work

re: Native LLM: The fact that Amazon just upgraded the web browser shows that they at least have some engineers working on Kindles, so one can always hope

and yet, there are some obvious things on my scribe that they haven't done:

- no way to disable auto-rotate

- can only write on PDFs from send-to-kindle, but that's limited to I think 50MB so textbooks etc. are not an option

- only works with audible audiobooks, no normal m4b supported

i believe the web browser is also still crazy cut down. i like the device but they're evidently understaffed on software

Fair point, yeah it's definitely still cut down
