I want to buy a Kindle Paperwhite (because I could use the built-in lighting) but I'm worried that its 300 ppi resolution could slow it down a bit. The basic Kindle 8 has the same processor and the same RAM, but four times less pixels - so I wonder whether it's not faster.

My 5-year old Kindle Touch has a delay when changing pages and especially when accessing one of Kindle's dictionaries. I was hoping that the most recent generation doesn't suffer from this, Paperwhite included.
