For reference, I've been using the Kandle, although I think mine is an older model than pictured. It's really not too bad, except for batteries. It uses watch-type batteries that you pretty much have two options on:

1) Buy very expensive name-brand ones

2) Buy a whole lot of super cheap import ones that don't last nearly as long

I have a habit of falling asleep while reading, so I went with #2. It's still annoying as you have to haul out a jeweler's screwdriver (they provide one) to swap batteries. Overall it's been 'acceptable', but if I have the refund from my Paperwhite I wouldn't mind trying something more expensive. Having the ability to recharge batteries myself would be nice though.
If you own a K3 then a lighted cover would be perfect for you. If the person you sleep with is on the right of you. The light turns off when the Kindle is alseep. Maybe they will go on sale again this holiday.
