I really liked the new Sony models with that IR touchscreen setup, but they are very expensive plus the 6" model has some serious availability issues. So my new Kindle 3 plus lighted cover arrived about 1/2 hour ago

Putting my old 505 side-by-side with the Kindle 3 *really* shows how much better these e-ink Pearl screens are - wow. So much better contrast and I love it!

Initial impressions are very good so far!
Ditto - my new Kindle arrived yesterday afternoon The improvements to the screen when compared to the sony 505 are really noticeable. I got the lighted case as well, and am really pleased with how securely the kindle is held, and how sturdy and convenient the light is.

Enjoy!
