Anyway. It's my very first e-reader and I'm just amazed! The screen really looks like paper. That's not just marketing talk! I'm so super happy. It's much better than I expected.
I spent the past week looking carefully for books I always wanted to read that are free and found around 150 so far. That's probably just the tip of the iceberg. The money I saved on those books even if I just read half of them more than makes up for the price of my Kindle.
I got the unlighted cover (I never used a booklight so why would I suddenly have to on an artificial book?) and it's really nice. I understand why it has this price now, too. The leather and finish feels really nice and justifies the price entirely.
Just started reading The Picture Of Dorian Gray...I forgot I wasn't reading a book so fast I can't believe it. Plus, the dictionary function really helps when reading older and more sophisticated books if you're not native. Before I always had to check words on the Internet or in translators...now I can do it in a matter of seconds.
Sorry about the fanboy talk but I have not been that happy about a cheap product like this in the recent past.

Glad you are happy. The K3 isn't my first reader (I have had all 3 iterations of the kindle) and I am still pretty pleased. I understand your excitement completely. Enjoy.
