I was looking at buying a refurbished Kindle 4 yesterday, can get both this and cover for half the price of this one, and in some ways this was my favorite reader. It was sooo light, with wonderfully placed buttons, and battery actually did last a month of actual reading! (And it had the progress bar which I loved).
I was still tempted by this one though as a cheap take everywhere reader, especially as it comes in white. I haven't had a white ereader since my very first kindle, the kindle 2.
At one point I had both this and the kindle 4 in my basket, and took them out. 
The contrast of the kindle 4 was also excellent, no light layer, no touch layer. I’m still tempted by the new one though... |
That's true , I really hope they add buttons to the entry level Kindles again. The Paperwhite 4 also has more storage options and more leds. So another reason for a upgrade or difference from the new Basic. I'm pretty sure they will have the new Basic Kindle in the stores soon. I would like to see one in hand. Although I'm holding out for buttons of some kind.
