(I don't and have never had the Kindle Touch to compare).

I like the PW better than the K3 for many reasons.

It has a faster processor. It is faster in all things. Just waking it from sleep is faster. On the K3 there is always a delay while the wheel at the top spins, whether wifi/3G is on or not. There is no delay on the PW.

All operations, such as browsing through collections, are faster also.

Wifi connects faster, too. Even sending a book wirelessly from my PC to the PW is almost instantaneous.

I love the new software that allows cover or list view. (Hate the collection folder pic).

I was testing the web browser over wifi the other night. It was a lot faster. But it also crashed several times. As I didn't get it for web browsing, no matter.

The "time left in chapter" doesn't work for me. I leave it set on "time left in book." I like it! Would prefer the progress bar in addition.

I love the light. There are many, many times it will come in handy. No more worrying about grabbing a book light for a ride in the car, or carrying the Fire (SO much heavier). (Had to take the Fire last night in the car, as my daughter wanted to use the PW. Not so fun lugging it around at a football game).

I love that it is smaller, lighter, thinner, too. I have mine in the official Amazon case. Fantastic.
