I liked the way the text appears on the kindle and how easy it is on the eyes compared to a tablet.
On the other hand, this particular model was too small in screen size. Not a lot of text fits on the screen.
Also I find the screen refresh on the page turn annoying. I prefer a tablet in both these aspects.

Device should come with a user guide for novice users. It is difficult to learn without it.

Works fine. The problem is that we bought a model "with offers" or some such wording. That means that every time we turn it on (like after it times out when we answer the phone) we get a new set of commercials to watch while "it prepares to turn on". Darned annoying. We asked the salesperson what "with offers" meant and he didn't know.

I am disappointed that this doesn't support immersive reading but it serves its purpose. It has shut down randomly. This isn't the best Kindle I have owned yet with a low expectation, to begin with, I have accepted this as an average eReader. As I said, it serves its purpose. I am happy with it but not overwhelmed.
