... and every disadvantage. I use a K3 and my wife has a PW on which I've read several books. The light is nice, but I do miss the hardware buttons. I find the PW's lack of a "dead zone" around the outer edge of the touchscreen a problem. I have frequently turned pages just picking up the reader.

So I think there are two things to consider:
1) Do you want to upgrade to touchscreen, and
2) Do you want a built-in light.
Make that three things:
3) Do you use the audio in the K3, either for Text-to-Speach or for playing MP3 audio files?

The Touch and PW both lack audio.
