PW Pro: Ooooh, shiny! Specifically higher contrast shiny. Also more powerful processor and newer tech, no buttons to break. The K3's mouse-powered processor is adequate, but really? I know it doesn't burn much battery power, but really.
PW Con: I already have a book light, thanks, I don't need a second. Touch-screen, ugh, I mean, you have to TOUCH the screen, and get it all nasty. Unknown reputation; I hate being an early adopter.

Still on the fence.

I'm at more or less the same point.
PW: Should I be an early adopter? What about the battery life? Touch screen? Hmmm... It's the newest, the newest I tell thee !!
K4: Seems like a downgrade. No audio, no keyboard (OK I don't type much, but I use the find thingie many times will I read), but cheap. I can get two for the price of another K3.
Touch: Seems a bit better than K4. But where can I get it now? It has audio jack (HURRAY!!), but can I get used to flipping pages like that?

Meh...
