[Love my grandkids]

All my books from the old kindle were on the cloud, easy to access. This thing is so fun to use!! I'm loving it!!! And the purple cover is gorgeous!

Glad you're enjoying your new Paperwhite. I have a 4 year old Kindle and I'm looking at the Fire HD. They have a new one coming out only 6 inches and only $99. I'm tempted.

I'm so glad you like it. My library has so many good books for kindle.

I had an appointment yesterday and a woman was there reading on a very small kindle which must have been the 6 incher. I asked her how she liked it and she stated it was too small, she purchased a very thick case for it to add for a better grip. I have to say myself that I thought it was too small as well.

I have the old white 2nd generation keyboard and love the fact I don't have to move my hand to swipe the page, just put the thumb on the button and push. I wish they'd come out with another with the button

You can just tap your thumb on the screen of the Paperwhite and change it. No need to hold it on that button! LOL!!! I thought the same thing until I got this latest Paperwhite and I am IN LOVE that that baby!!!!! Just saying. . .

tap and not slide across? That's good to know. But... do you find yourself turning the page by accident at all?

I'm not finding turning pages an issue. I have mine in a fairly large but light weight Vera Bradley cover, so I'm holding that not the reader itself. I do have the 6" one in a very small cover (sometimes I even take it out) to carry with me in my purse, and I find the buttons annoying when I use it. I have had it a long time.

I love my paperwhite.

Glad you love it! I had the keyboard version before I bought a Paperwhite and think the Paperwhite is so much easier to use. I love it and always recommend it to friends.

I agree. I went from the 2nd generation white Kindle with keyboard and page turn buttons to the Paperwhite, and I am crazy about the Paperwhite's touch screen. Just a tap, and the page turns. . you can swipe if you want, but there is no need. Seems like I read the new Voyage Kindle has a page turn button?
