I don't feel I "settled" for the k3. I used both, (my sil has the DX) and found the K3 far superior, for me.

Thats the trouble with personal recommendations.

We don't all have the same needs/wants.
You nailed this response. Yes, we all have different needs and wants. While I think e-ink is fine and I like the battery life on the Kindle, I really don't have any problem reading on my iPad. It doesn't give me a headache. I find I'm reading more often. The biggest downside is the other distracting things you can do with the iPad. BTW I find myself reading in bed far more often than direct sunlight. The iPad excels at reading in dim light situations.

Pick an e-reader you like. Enjoy it and don't worry about the one you didn't pick. Especially, don't worry about the ones who want to tell you why their device is so much better (as long as you find the one you have works well for you).
