Original story: Amazon's Kindle Scribe is very nice hardware with a software problem-namely, that its operating system was designed with reading in mind, and the writing features feel underbaked compared to a writing-centric tablet like the reMarkable 2.
Amazon announced today that it would be "rolling out regular, free software updates" for the Scribe this year, starting with a small one today that expands on some of the Scribe's existing features.
