4+ year old kindle, i read hours a day. I like real books but i just can't justify the space they take up anymore

I have a Kindle Paperwhite. Got me reading again after a long break. I can read it in the dark, in bed, without needing a light to disturb the woman next to me.

I just got one for Christmas, and since I've finished two books and am in the middle of two others (After a 2, close to 3 year dearth).
E-Ink is surprisingly more awesome than I could have imagined. Reading off an E-Ink display is so much better than an LCD display for whatever reason. Maybe it's because E-Ink is a physical thing, instead of pixels emitting various colors of light.

I love my kindle paper white but I hate only having digital copies of things so I typically read actual books instead. I hope someday they make it so if you buy a book you get the digital download with it.

I love my Paperwhite, and my neverending stream of free books from archive.org all lined up neatly in my Calibre program.

I have a Kindle - I like it for a certain kind of book, the sort that I won't re-read. At the moment I have several non-fiction things to read plus a dozen or two other books on the ready. I like not having to use two hands to hold the pages or turn pages. E-ink is the only way to go, backlights are bullshit for reading.

Totally agree on the E-ink. I like that I can charge up my kindle and use it for a couple weeks. I've been meaning to take it on a backpacking trip with me. The idea of having a room full of books in the palm of my hand is just exciting. I want to be posted up in a hammock with my books.
I've had the kindle app on all my phones and a couple of tablets and have never used it. Now my tablet is excellent for reading comics.

Exactly my thoughts, E-Ink is so important for me. I am not a fan of those ereaders that are simply tablets.

The point is e-ink.
