It was said that availability dates may shift as new and replacement devices are made available.

Inour Kindle Colorsoft review, we did not experience the reported yellow bar.

We even gave the machine a rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars, praising the vibrant color display.

Since the issue started, we have been checking the gadget but have been unable to recreate the problem.
