I have the Kindle Basic. It arrived Friday so I've been reading on it for four days. I like it. Mine isn't the $79 because I am in Mexico. No special offers. I wish I could. I see no difference in the screen on my K3 and the Kindle Basic.
Why the Kindle Basic? I read books with my Kindle. That's all I do. I don't play games with my Kindle. I don't surf the internet or do my email with the Kindle. I don't want to watch movies with my ereader.
I just want a convenient device for reading books and, for me, the Kindle Basic fills the bill. I consider it an upgrade from my Kindle3 because of the on-screen keyboard. For me, it's far superior to the blasted mechanical keyboard.
