Just got my Kindles in for the wife and me. She's in love, and I'm in love. Definitely what the original Kindle should have been, especially since it's now very much in line with the Sony PRS-500/505 line.

I do notice some screen variation between both the Kindles, with "mine" being slightly darker. Also, some sporadic black specks on the screens, sort of like teeny ink smudges, - not really dead/stuck pixels. You only really notice if you look REALLY closely, but still interesting...

The official Kindle cases are great, and light years ahead of the crap that shipped with Kindle 1.

The page turn speed is VERY noticeably faster than the Kindle 1. Definitely enjoying these new puppies!

Feel free to ask any questions, and I'd be happy to answer.
