    Weird to see Kindle 1st generation on here, when support for my 3rd generation kindle was ended a couple years ago?

    I've got an older Kindle and this annoys me greatly. I don't use it a lot, maybe read one or two books a year on it. It works fine and the fact Amazon expects me to retire my perfectly good working device and hand them money for a new one is ridiculous. They are likely to lose me as a buyer of books on Kindle I will make the effort to buy more books elsewhere.

    Does anyone know of a Kindle equivalent? Or has Amazon locked down the format to prevent that?

      You can still use it, you just cannot browse the store from the device anymore, afaik. I never did that anyway, I always sent books from my browser to the kindle, which should still work.
