They will be releasing new firmware updates that will hopefully fix the battery drain issues and hopefully others. So I would say maybe wait a little bit. Now with that said if I had everything to do over again I think I would have gotten a Nook instead. So if you are definitely going to get a new e-reader my suggestion is go with a Nook. They read most formats, and you can take notes on them by pecking at a keyboard on the screen.
silly rabbit! anything that can be run through calibre can be put on a Kindle!
