Kindle keyboard 3 is still my favorite I ever had! If it had been backlit I would still use it. It had its own built in Wi-Fi so you could download books from anywhere. Sadly, I believe they are no longer supported by Amazon.
You are correct! :-/
This was still informative for anyone that thinks they can just buy an older device and have all their content.
That was me! 🤓😅
Yea eBay is actually really great about refunds if you do it in a timely manner. I’m sorry that didn’t go right 😢
ebay? Well… maybe I will try!
@@thebooknookcorner1153yes sorry autocorrect is out to get me lol
I am soon going to buy a Kindle keyboard in the white version in the 3rd generation
Ohhh I hope it works for you!! Where are you buying yours from? 😀
EBay it was $36.00 dollars but I will be purchasing a replacement battery for my Kindle keyboard 3rd generation
@@kategraceewing1029 How do you know which battery to buy? Ahhh lol
The first gen keyboard Kindle would likely be useful for someone who sideloads books!
what does sideload mean? haha
@@thebooknookcorner1153 you just add the books directly to the Kindle using either Calibre or dropping the files into the folder with File Explorer. But it wouldn't sync across multiple devices that way
Connecting to a computer and dragging and dropping them on
@@katanabluebird Oh! Okay thanks ☺️
When u pay with PayPal you can file a claim through them and get your money back
Ohhh good to know!!!
your books will be in the kindle cloud or archive and you need to download each book to your kindle while connected to wifi
That’s what we tried to do and they aren’t on there. 😭
Great video. It’s interesting to see how these have changed over the years.
I still have my original Kindle 2- the first one you showed. I was able to pretty easily replace my battery and it works great.
If you want to use it you need to ‘side load’ by connecting it to your computer and copying books into the kindle folder.
Calibre is a free ebook manager software you can use to make it even easier! The software makes it possible to convert any ebook into kindle’s file format.
Ohh hmm awesome! Where did u find the kindle battery? Like… how do I know which one to buy? :)
Barnes and noble recently discontinued their older nooks, you must of connected to the internet with them last week to get them registered. You can only sideload books on them now and read already downloaded books.
what does side load mean? haha
@@thebooknookcorner1153 the device needs to be connected to your computer. You can then load books with I think I drop and drag or use calibre. I'm not sure how to download nook books directly to the computer. I managed to get mine from my android tablet, sent the books to SD card and connected to tablet to the computer and looked in the SD directory until I found the downloaded books. I suggest asking your husband for help.
@@kay2631 Thank you so much! I will tell him! 🤣
This is what B&N chat told me. Register an older nook before June 1st or you would be out of luck. You could see your books but would not be able to add new.
@@susan8589 😭
Sorry to hear that your devices died out or didn’t work properly! It was very interesting to see you try out the old e-readers. I also have a kindle keyboard (my first e-reader) from years ago that is now no longer working. That’s awesome about the readathon! Would love to see a video about suggestions to read for the event, and/or sharing your own TBR for it 😊
Yeah I am super bummed. :( Will do! 😀
The Kindle ‘Touch’ (the third one you review) is actually not the kindle touch. It’s the kindle 4th generation. And it doesn’t have touchscreen. I have this version and still use it! Mine REFUSES to break
I can’t get any books to download to it 😭
Kindle keyboard 3 all the way…… it was my first kindle and I still use it. I upgraded to the. Ew paper white, but I still use the keyboard lol
How do you use it? I can’t get mine to download any books 😭
@@thebooknookcorner1153 were you able to get it connected to WiFi. It should be in settings. Register it to your account of course, then you can search and Download books or Libby books straight onto it. It also reads to you if you want it to. It’s very robotic but it does
Awww... It sucks none of these worked as expected. I have an old kindle fire hd 7 (I think the first tablet they released) and I don't know what to do with it!
Does it work? 😀
It does, though it doesn't hold charge for long. I already changed the battery myself like 10 years ago, but I don't think it's worth doing it again because the screen has also turned a little yellow by the middle.
@@valentinaovalle6798 Oh man that’s a bummer :(
Love this, even if they didnt work out quite the way you wanted. Just saw Alyssa has a Nook Classic video up! did you guys coordinate?
definitely not….
@@thebooknookcorner1153 oh lol just a coincidence
@@RedLikeMii Yep! If you look…. mine was uploaded first. ☺️😉
@@thebooknookcorner1153 yeah I watched it a few days ago. I didn't mean any offense or anything just thought it was neat.
@@RedLikeMii You are all good!!! 💕♥️😀
