Pros & Cons
Pros
Buy the kindle along with a book scented candle. No more musty, moldy books to move to your new place. I use for when i travel, it spares me from having to carry 2 or 3 books with me.
It's thinner than ever, very light and the battery life is amazing. The front lighting is better too. This kindle keeps a charge for weeks compared to having to charge it every day with the nook.
It turns the screen on when you open the kindle and it folds over the back and stays there. Some functions are not intuitive with the device, but i am slowly figuring it out.
Easy to use - the type is very readable. Cumbersome downloading process. Easy to learn to use.

The battery holds it charge for at least a week (and i read every day)
Con: too wide to hold comfortably for longer than 30 mins, user interface more complicated and less intuitive.
Price
Worth every penny - highly recommend this
Subtract the price of a screen protector, and i got a very nice price for the package.
Watch for sales to max out your value.
It is not a cheap device, and you dont spend a couple of pennys in buying books.
Packaging/appearance
I opened amazon's website, looked at my past electronic book order, looked at the description of the stories and fond the book ... Read More
The kindle itself is wonderful; however, the cover arrived weeks later and was soaking wet inside the box it came in and smelle... Read More
Competitiveness
The previous model was nice, but adding that little bit of real estate to the screen made a big difference.
