In addition, the PW 2012, PW 2013 and HD 2012 all require one to press the Sync button to get to the proper page after waiting about 15 seconds. The HD 2013 does NOT have a sync button. It is in CONTINUOUS sync. That may use more power but I won't know that for a couple of weeks.
The X-ray feature on an eBook I'm reading now, "Dirty Wars," at page 149 of 643 shows the following: PW 2012 and PW 2013 shows one link but no details; the HD 2012 shows 2 links but no details; the HDX 2013 shows FOUR links with FULL details for each.
Last, but not least, the Accessibility features of the HDX 2013 do not even exist on the PW 2013 or the HD 2012.

Except for PDFs, I don't like or use any tablet for serious reading sessions, honestly. And is sad that companies, even Amazon are shifted their business towards tablets; after all, it seems they are more profitable and appealing to people.
It is my opinion that even an iPad with retina display can't beat the advantages and simplicity of eink.
