    The white version works as good as the black one. Battery is good can last for 3-4 weeks. Plus the white color is gorgeous.

    I've had one of these before, but I lost it in the divorce. I happily bought another one. They're so easy to carry around, and setup is trivial.

    It's only a few weeks old, but so far the TV is working great. Great picture. No issues to report.

    My first Kindle coming from a Nook

    I bought a nook about a year ago because it was water proof, but I haven't really used it because the refresh seems glitchy. I haven't really used my e-reader near water and I'm a frequent Amazon Prime shopper, so I decided to get a Kindle Paperwhite. It's weird, but it seems easier for me to navigate through the Kindle than it is on the Nook. The refreshing seems more fluid than the Nook's. One quick black flash here and there. The Nook sometimes flickers two or three and gets a little distracting.

    I like the kindle. The only thing is there's a little light fluctuation at the bottom of the screen.

    Great product. The only problem is that my son is now staying up late to read books in his bed at midnight without lights turned on. :-)

    Reads like a book instead of a tablet. Saves on book storage space and is always on hand. Looks good sitting on my nightstand. No clutter.

    Got this for my son for Christmas as it fits perfectly in the pocket of his BDU's. This way he always has a book with him during down time.

    Still a great device even though it's a little older than the Voyage and Oasis. Perfect for reading at night and has great resolution. Love it!

    Love the paperwhite. Option of backlighting is great when reading in the dark but still able to see when outside in the sun. I do wish it had adaptive backlighting (I prefer to have backpighting off to save battery during daylight reading). Overall a great reading device.

    Ordering this online to pick up at the store was easy until I got to the store where, as usual, there were workers standing around yet I had to wait several minutes for someone to address me at the pickup desk then I had to wait to pay for it at the registers. I would have thought I could purchase it at the pickup center. Honestly, if it weren't for the increased risk of stolen delivery items during the Christmas season, I probably would have gone with Amazon to purchase the Kindle. (The price was the same through both retailers.)
