Nothing about 'improved typography', unless the higher resolution qualifies. I never cared about page turn buttons, and given that they must use some energy to 'vibrate' wonder if it will affect time between charges significantly. Nor was auto-brightness on my wish list (I trust it is still possible to adjust the level manually). Probably don't have use for the additional storage, either. Flush screen, yes.

Does it have a faster CPU than PW2? I didn't see any info on that. Thought it also had a way to flip through illustrations via some navigation feature (oh that is 'Expanded Xray', which is on all of the new Kindles as well as those they choose to update).

No matter, I pre-ordered one. The screen and overall performance had better be significantly better than my PW1's, or I'll return it.

As for the tablets, the only one that interests me at all is the 6" model, I think I would like the more compact form factor. For $119 (16GB please) I could see replacing my Fire HD2 (which has no cameras or mic, doesn't have IPS screen, dual rather than quad core CPU). Oh, and HD out (via SlimPort compatible USB). Especially if there is a Fire sale.
