I have an older Kindle, the Kindle 3, which still works perfectly; I enjoy reading with it. I am looking into my upgrade options, however - upgraditis strikes again. The Kindle Paperwhite with WiFi (no ads) is at the top of my list.

Except for the fact that Amazon is no doubt even more intrusive (Cloud control and all, lol) than they were in the days of the Kindle 3, I don't really see any, but are there any serious downsides to going from the Kindle 3 to the newest version of the Paperwhite?

I got the latest Paperwhite for Christmas which replaced my Kindle 3. I love it. Having a built in light is terrific. The only downside is a slightly reduced battery life.
