    While it's small and light weight, its packed full of features. Great deal for an e reader. A great way to get my 6 year old reading since it's an electronic device, he wants to use it.

    I use this every day on my commute. Great battery life, no backlight but very readable with normal lighting. I like the built in dictionary. Email yourself pdf or mobi files for easy transfers.

    I bought this for my daughter. It is our 4th Kindle bought within the family. The touchscreen is great and my daughter loves it. In fact, those of us with older model Kindles are jealous.
