I currently have a Paper White model one and I might be interested if the kindle gives me an upgrade over what I have now. What matters to me is the size and weight of the reader, I do not feel that the screen resolution maked that much difference to me since this is purely text that is being displayed and does not need super high resolution. I do ocasionally read in the dark, however that is rare. It's rare enough that I would conder the basic kindle if it offers some advances in size and weight over the paper white model one. As stated in other threads my paper white model one is doing ok, however it is having some issues here and there, enough so that I would consider an upgrade.
Now for a statement of my own personality, I really hate to be with out a few books to occupy my time when I commute to and from the office or going other places. The last time I had a kindle break down on me that was my older Kindle three where the on/off switch stopped working and I could no longer turn it on. It took me two weeks when I could not access my kindle library and I really hated that, I think that it would pay for me to have a secondary kindle in case the first one, the paper white, breaks down so I can keep reading while I replace the paper white. I would like one of the two to be a paper white since I do read in dark rooms on ocasion, I do not think that the voyage gives me enough value to compensate me for the extra dollars that would be needed for it. The basic could cover 75% of my reading environments so its a consideration for me.
