My Kindle died. Second one to die in the same way (cracks on screen, doesn't change). Had it for 2 years.

Anyway, I definitely need an e-reader, but I'm not 100% sure I necessarily want to buy another kindle because...

1. 90% of my books are not purchased from amazon

and

2. those that are, I've DRM stripped and stored in my calibre already

I use my e-reader for reading comic-books too, so resolution is a big deal when choosing my next one. Greater than 800x600 would be a plus.

I already have a tablet, so I don't see that as an alternative.

With that in mind, is there a "better"choice, or do I just buy a third kindle?
