My first Kindle was a used Kindle Touch. I didn't like it, the font was too light and I was used to my dark fonts on the Nook Simple Touch. So I gave the Touch to my brother and bought an NT4. I liked that one a lot. (Still like it, though I need to replace the battery now.) The fonts may not have been perfectly formed but they were dark and clear and I did more eBook reading on that eReader than on any other. My father has read thousands and thousands of pages on the Kindle Keyboard I sent him several years ago. Later I found out that you could add darker fonts to a Kindle Touch, and that made all the difference.
Once I found out how to adjust the font darkness on the Sony Readers I've come to realize that they did do a nicer job of rendering fonts, but (for me) the Nook Simple Touch Kindle NT4 and Kindle 3 fonts are fine. Definitely dark enough. And, in some ways, I still like them better. Less fiddling with fonts, more reading.
