Then I have been seeing comments that latest kindles do not have the Download and Transfer option on the amazon contents page which bothered me.
So, for now, I have canceled my trade-ins and canceled my Colorsoft order completely. I may change my mind again in the future once I see comparison videos or see one in person at Best Buy. But for now, I am passing I think.

It does show side by side images, so you can see for yourself. |
I think TheSmitty was specifically looking for a comparison of the color.
