I speculated back in March that Amazon might discontinue the 8GB Kindle Paperwhite e-reader. The company has finally done it; the 8GB storage model is no longer available for new purchases in the United States and the United Kingdom. However, the 8GB model is available in some international markets, such as Canada, but the 16GB model is checked by default. When the 11th generation Amazon Kindle Paperwhite was released in 2021 it had 8GB of internal storage and one year later, Amazon increased the storage to 16GB. Since books, comics, manga and audiobooks are growing, 8GB will not cut it anymo ..read more
