Kindles

I'm trying to a) decide if I want to get a Kindle and b) if I get one, which version should I get?

So - who has kindles?  Do you like them?  What version do you have?  If you could have another version, what would you get?

My bookshelf is getting quite full at home, and I'm thinking the Kindle is the better option for vacations.  Less books to have to bring!  Also, I would be able to use the Kindle at the gym as well.  I've been taking a book to read while on the stairmaster or riding the bike.

I'm trying to debate between the Kindle Paperwhite, Kindle Paperwhite 3G, or the Kindle Fire.  I'm torn on what to get if I get one.  I want to be able to read it in the dark, and I would love to be able to read it outside (if possible).

  • I have a nook so it doesn't really apply to the question but I do love it for travel. And if you can get ebooks from your library its nice because then you don't have to buy all the books.
  • You should be able to download ebooks from your local library to your Kindle as well! I just started doing that this year for my Nook and love it! Brand new books might not be available but it's still a nice feature. Both my dad and sister have Kindle Fir

  • I got the Kindle Fire for Christmas, but haven't totally had the chance to use it yet. It seems like it will be great for keeping my paper magazines in check as I will probably just convert to a digital subscrip soon. I like the display so far - very colo
