$10 less than the hoped-for best Amazon price. Tempting.

Cancel that "Oops": tax in my state. Tempting again.


End result: Temptation won. Like all recent Staples Paperwhite buyers, I got the 4 GB, no-ads version. Loving it so far, compared to my unlit e-readers. Thanks for the help.

P.S. My Staples had a touch Kindle priced at $63, tagged in-store as a "Special Purchase." I don't know enough about the two Touch Kindles to know if it was the new Touch or the old Touch.
