I just put my K3 up on eBay, and I purchased the $79 no-frills device. This was a total no-brainer for me, as the keyboard was, imo, the worst thing about the K3 (and earlier) devices. I never really used it, and it was just taking up real estate. I kept my SONY PRS-300 around for on the go, while the K3 stayed in the house. But this K4 non-touch should be small enough for a large pocket - it effectively replaces two e-readers for me.

The Touch version wasn't on my radar - I prefer the side buttons since 90% of the time I'll be using it for reading.

My SONY PRS-300 is probably going up on eBay as soon as the Kindle shows up. I love consolidating devices -- less clutter at home!
