The only reason I am thinking of it is the larger screen.
It is the BEST Kindle device BY FAR! The screen is just fantastic, the asymmetric form factor is very ergonomic. It can be used in a tub without ziplock bag. The extra storage allows to overload it with a lot of large books (cookbooks, travel books, manga, etc). The larger screen definitely improves the reading experience especially with the above mentioned book types. The battery on my unit seems to be as good as on my PW2 (unlike what other people reported).

No, it is definitely NOT worth the price. I paid a little over $300 (incl. tax) for it. It's almost 3 times the price of a new PW3.
