I just ordered And finally! The Paperwhite Kindle has adjustable margins.

Something strange on the shipping dates with the covers though. I ordered a Tan one, which has October 3 as the shipping date on the sales page. On the actual order though, shipping date shows as October 31. I'm presuming October 31 is the correct date.

I just placed my order. Although, I was pretty disappointed to see only 2GB of internal storage on the Paperwhite

Can't pre-order Kindle paperwhite for Canada. Says I need to go to the international page and then only gives me the low end $89 version.

Huh, I thought we were discussing the free 3G on the paperwhite.

I'd rather have a 50 meg limit then zero and only the store and wiki.

I just pre-ordered the wifi Kindle Paperwhite + persimmon cover. I'm sure the preorders for those cases will go fast since the estimated delivery dates are already slipping further and further into the future.

Anyway I am super excited about these new Kindles. I honestly can't imagine a more perfect e-reader. I used to be totally against the touch interface, and now I love it and can't go back to the NT Kindles.

It seems that the paperwhite is a US exclusive. Have pre-ordered the kindle fire HD 16 GB as the UK website is claiming that we will get access to the media content.

It's gone. Look at the new banner. I've never seen a model get discontinued that fast. They said they worked on the KPW for 2 years now.

Pre-ordered the Kindle Fire HD in 16GB. Thought about going bigger, but didn't think the outrageous tax was worth it. I have so many cloud services anyway. Going to get the Paperwhite later on for my travels next year.

Does it works inside waterproof bags?

No, not really. Although with the Paperwhite being Capacitive rather than IR touch (like the KTouch is) that may not be a problem.
