Do you enjoy reading on your PW a lot more than reading on your KK? If so, then I say you should go for it. |
Warning: minor rant against no one in particular.
I understand your point, but the more disposable ereaders have become the more I've questioned my commitment to them.
Batteries that can't be changed, the constant gotta-have-it new cheap plastic gizmo that'll change your life - I get enough of that with my cell phones. I can also do short-term reading on the go just fine with them.
If I traveled frequently my attitude would be different, but the warm fuzzy that having a library in my pocket gives me hasn't amounted to much. On my third ereader now since '08, and I'm not relishing another $100+ that could be spent on pbooks or subscriptions of the same price as e-subscriptions.
However, I'm really wanting a PW2, and may pick one up anyway
