The Scribe comes with a Premium Pen, which includes a built-in eraser. | Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge The Kindle Scribe is worth considering if you’re heading back to school, as its large 10.2-inch screen can display textbooks and ebooks, or let you jot down handwritten notes during class. Now through August 8th, the first-gen model (with a Premium Pen) is down to just $149.99 with 16GB of storage in refurbished condition at Woot when you apply the promo code KINDLE25 at checkout. That’s $220 off its original launch price from 2022 and even cheaper than the current Kindle Paperwhite , though you’ll only get Woot’s 90-day warranty. Woot doesn’t specify the exact condition of its refurbished devices, but it does offer a brief explanation here of what to expect.
