Amazon Ends Support for Older Kindle Devices

Amazon is discontinuing service for Kindle e-reader models released before 2012. Customers owning these older devices will lose access to the Kindle Store, significantly limiting their functionality. This decision impacts users who rely on these devices for purchasing and downloading new e-books. The move suggests Amazon's strategic shift towards newer hardware and services, potentially encouraging users to upgrade to more recent Kindle models. Affected customers have been notified via email regarding the upcoming service termination.
