I don't really like the extra size of the Kindle with keyboard, as I said my last reader was a Cybook Opus, but it does solve the problem of not liking the look of that on screen keyboard the basic kindle has...
Decisions decisions! Someone pointed out in another thread that you can't stick the touch screen kindle in a zip lock bag to take it into dangerous environments (like the beach) which I did a few times, even used my Opus in the bath (while in a "safe" zip lock bag) a few times. |
kindle with keyboard is only a little bigger really.
and the UK 3G one offers full web browsing, not just wikipedia (albeit with edge speeds and limited capability). So you can check your email/facebook for instance.
