I've been driving myself crazy all week trying to decide whether to try the new K4 or get a Kindle Keyboard. I have a DXG that I love, but sometimes I want a smaller Kindle to take away from home with me, or the arthritis in my wrists is bothering me and the weight is uncomfortable - it would just be nice to have a choice, and given the current price points I can afford to add a 'baby' Kindle to the family.
I got my adult daughter a K3 in August, and it's beautifully clear with wonderful contrast, especially with the sans serif font (which my DXG doesn't have). I've read the review from Tom's Hardware and seen what they say about the K4 display, which isn't very flattering. My eyesight isn't great - I'll probably have cataract surgery in about a year - and I need all the contrast I can get at this point.
I don't like what I've read from some people about the screen on the K4 - and yet there are others who think it's even better than the K3. I'm a little concerned that they're phasing out the keyboard model, would never want a touch screen, and feel like I should make a choice now, while I still have the chance to choose between the Keyboard model and the K4.
What to do, what to do . . . Blossom's experiences with the K4 aren't making me lean in that direction at the moment, but it's so inviting with it's small form.
