I have a K3, a month ago I got Paperwhite. It's perhaps not a perfect device - contrast is not all it could be, it's not as responsive as I would like, and sorting/collections is still very bare bones.
But I love it. I'll never go back. I did have a lighted book cover for my K3. But to avoid disturbing my wife, I'd have to both awkwardly drape the blanket over the light to create a little tent to reduce the ambient light AND put the K3 in landscape mode (to make said tenting more doable). With the paperwhite, I just turn the light down to 5 or 6 and read. It's extraordinary.
Not to mention, my K3 with cover now seems as heavy and bulky as a brick compared to the svelte Paperwhite and case.
