    Needless to say..Kindle Paperwhite is awesome product worth of millions as it holds invaluable books in 4GB space as well as in amazons cloud ... Its 6" anti-glare touch-screen display with 300 ppi resolution gives you a real feel of reading... its night mode gives the flexibility to read books in dark... Battery backup lasts for days....perfect for book lovers.. give it a try.. all the best..

    Kindle is good. Best Buy service is poor

    Best Buy was supposed to give me $20 for the purchase of the kindle and I was told that I would get an email. I never did. The Kindle does what it says however I prefer the buttons to turn the pages that were on the 1st & 2nd models. Also I prefer to have the name of the book listed rather than a picture of the cover of the book. The picture is too small and unclear which makes it difficult to see which book it is and you only get three on the first page. I prefer to see as much as possible at first glance. Also, I love the lighting that is adjustable and allows you to read in bed and does not disturb my night's rest. Overall, I really enjoy using it.

    Oh the great Lord above knew I wanted a Paperwhite so badly, but knew I refused to get one full price. Thanks to Best buy's 2 day Amazon sale I got one almost half price. It looks good works perfectly as intended, I was worried it was going to a used one snuck in the package because of the price being so good. I'm a very happy camper no complaints from me.
