For 20 bucks, its got to be worth the upgrade, even if you only use it for 6 months while awaiting the next PW. Though bear in mind you will probably need to buy an SD card for it (onboard storage for non-B&N books is minimal) and you will need to convert your books to epubs to read on it.

Book conversion and a SD card won't be a problem. My main interest was if the display would be an upgrade (however small). The contrast on my kindle 2 is rather poor, and the text seems hazy.
Thanks for your input!
