I still like my crazy old in technology years Kindle. It's from 2010 and has buttons. I much prefer the Kindle non-backlit screens for reading.

Hey. New board.
I love all kindles. Lately though I have actually been doing more reading with Moon+ Reader Pro on my phone. Mostly out of convenience and in-pocketness.
Were I buying something I didn't already have, yeah, paperwhite. Get caliber set up and you can even read non Amazon books on it pretty easy and it is Library compatible too.

I just got a used Amazon Fire and I'm liking it. My kindle was nice but I couldn't read it without the lights on.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I still use an iPad. I'd love a dedicated, lightweight e-reader, but I feel that I just own Too Much Stuff.

I like the kindle app on my iPad better than the kindle for reading magazines. I can't figure out how to get the kindle to show me the magazine in the same order as the paper version rather than grouped however the "articles list" is ordered.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I've decided that reading on my phone is straining my eyes too much, and I don't otherwise feel a need for a tablet. I think I'm leaning toward Paperwhite.

I have an iPad, a big iPad, because that's pretty much the only thing that works for reading comics.

Our wings are not tired.
Flea, the Paperwhites are not backlit. They're front lit and incredibly easy on the eyes.

Reading comics on a mini iPad works for me.
