    Before the Kindle I had been using my Ipad to read books on. Had a ton of books of downloaded on there, but I could never get into reading them and I just thought it was me not being able to focus. Once I got the Kindle I realized the Ipad just isn't a great device for reading books but the Kindle is. Didn't realize how big of a difference I felt, but now I can read books and focus instead of getting distracted. Only downside to me personally is that there's no headphone jack so bluetooth headphones are required. Might be a bit of a disappointment if listen to a lot of audiobooks and don't have them already.
