I've had my Paperwhite since October. I had a Kindle Keyboard for three years, but I dropped it one to many times and the screen broke. I was torn between the Kindle 4, but chose the Paperwhite because of the light. I didn't think I would like the touch screen, but I have grown quite used to it. I like highlighting using the touch screen, and I like that footnotes appear in a pop-up. I thought I would miss the keyboard, but I find that I really don't. The on-screen keyboard is fine for those times when I do have to enter text. The only thing I miss is sound, I used to plug my Kindle into my car stereo and listen to audiobooks or books via text to speech. When my Kindle Keyboard broke, I picked up a Kindle Touch for my daughter. After I finish reading to her, I have the Kindle read to her via text to speech. It's the only way I get to escape!
