Dear all, now that the new Tolino Vision 3HD is available, there are pretty significant discounts on the older Vision 2.

The only difference between the two devices afaik is the screen resolution, namely 212dpi vs 300dpi, but right now the price difference is about 90€ vs 160€ (or 100$ vs 177$).
I have seen macros of the two screens and the difference is noticeable, but I am not so sure if it is during normal use.

I plan to use the reader only for text-based books (no comics, no pdf), my question is: is the resolution improvement worth the price?
For those who are not familiar with Tolino I think that the resolution difference is the same between Paperwhite 2 and Paperwhite 3.

Thanks!
