Less than zero, really. Whereas I find the Voyage very tempting. My point being only that the Voyage isn't a paperwhite 3. From the way I read your posts, if you were looking at cars, you'd be contemplating the horsepower only and ignoring the category and trim. Some people are going to want the minivan even if you can lap them on a racetrack with your roadster.
I recommend smartphones to a lot of people elsewhere, and encourage people to skip generations. If you have an S4, you aren't going to get much bang-for-your-buck out of an S5, but if you have an S3 or an S2, it's a real upgrade. Saying that there isn't enough of a gap between a paperwhite 2 and this to justify the cost doesn't distinguish this from the smartphone market very much.

It also depends if you are OK living with a Voyage with the stock firmware. If not, then a PW2 might be a better choice because there's a chance you'd get a PW2 with a version firmware that could be jailbroken.
