Which is one of the reasons why I don't have a Kindle.

Anyway, I like what I read about the Voyager. Kind of ironic, though, that I had been lamenting the lack of page-turn buttons for a long time, and when I finally get used to not having them, buttons/button-like sensors become popular again!

Happy with the non-HD Kobo Aura, though, and would get a H2O if it broke, but it being an Amazon product aside, the Voyager looks good to me.

Well, for better or for worse I have pre-ordered a Voyage. I chose it over a PW for a couple of reasons: firstly, it's a new new new gadget and secondly I got it for a very good price (wifi only, don't need 3G)

Now the wait begins!

I'm sure you got it for exactly the same pre-order price that everybody else did.

Couldn't it be that he lowered the price using gift cards or Amazon coin credit or something? He paid in a different way, in that case, but still, the immediate layout of money would be less.

I'm assuming one CAN use gift cards and credit on pre-orders; I don't know for sure.

Interesting I have been wondering whaat Kobo users thought of the Amazon lineup.

Maybe, but that has no impact on the overall price paid.

Actually no, I got it for less _without_ using gift cards. ;-)

Ah well, a couple of months back I got a 20% off code for a Kindle. When the Voyage was announced, I emailed to ask if it was valid for the new device and they said "no, but as you asked so nicely..." and voila! job done, order placed. :-)

Why thank you. :-)

I always find that politeness works wonders and my motto is "if you don't ask, you don't get!"
