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

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
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.
I also have an old Kindle and love it.
I had a basic kindle which I liked more than I thought I would, but the e-ink went all ferwonk after of a day of being schlepped around in my bag. (Just after the warranty expired.) So now I read on the kindle app on my ipad. Which is fine, except my old iPad 1 is heavy.
Love my paper white. I like library reading on the overdrive app on the iPad, but kindle is smaller, easier on the eyes, and more focused (less likely to get a notification or whatnot and suddenly be online instead of reading). Don't love the organization on the kindle but still prefer to iPad in general.
I use my iPad Mini Retina.
I read on my phone, and watch videos on my kindle.
I love my paperwhite as well - both for my own ebooks and those I borrow via Overdrive. In particular, I love increasing the font and reading without my glasses when I'm in bed. I also love the battery life - at least a week given the way I read (generally a couple of hours a day).
I bought the kindle DX last time around because it was the only one that was still offering a keyboard. It took a bit to get used to the bigger size, but I like it now. I use an iPad for graphic novels and cookbooks.
