Amazon reveals first color Kindle, new Kindle Scribe, and more

I wish they would do a bigger size kindle scribe. I read pdfs all day on my scribe, and often I wish the screen was bigger so the font size would be large.

Onyx Boox Tab X is a good option. The new Remarkable Pro with colour is probably a good option as well.

How suitable is 10" for PDF reading? Is the font too small? Do various e-readers allow PDF content to reflow?

I have been considering Boox Air 3C. PDFs are important for me.

Thanks.

The size is good for PDF reading, but PDFs with huge margins or small font sizes don’t work well.

One way to fix the margins issue is to use the “Send to Kindle” feature, which converts PDFs to the Print Replica format and trims their margins in the process. Sideloaded PDFs actually appear with more margins (thus reduced font sizes) than books sent through Amazon’s servers.

I wouldn't buy anything from Boox. Notorious GPL violators.

Then don't. You can find flaws with any and every company, but it gets bizarre that such a nit-pick gets commented here every time that brand is mentioned. Most people don't care about GPL.

Isn't remarkable pro the same size as Kindle scribe? Their website says 10.8 x 7.8 inches.

I mean, I do. I've written some GPL code that actually runs on Boox devices, and I'm quite annoyed they refuse to comply to share back their changes.

If you publish code openly for the world to use, it's not realistic that they'd respect any wishes or demands you make regarding that code. I can make an instructional video available to the public on how to chop wood more efficiently. If I demand that anybody who uses my technique only does it with birchwood, nobody is going to care.

It works fine I would say. In the absence of a bigger screen with proportional DPI (kindle scribe is 300 which is one of the highest in terms of screen size), kindle scribe is one of the better options still IMO.
