 To ask an obvious question - what is the advantage of a PW over the previous Kindles? | |

 The Paperwhite is frontlit. Which means you can read in all lighting conditions! It's perfect for night time reading or whenever. It has a higher resolution than previous Kindles. The screen on the Paperwhite is breath taking compare to previous Kindles. Once you use a PW it's hard to read on the other Kindles. The newest PW coming out will not be Pearl but a new screen called Carta with even better contrasts on blacks and whites! I am super excited! Last edited by Blossom; 09-12-2013 at 04:38 PM. | |

			She won't be able to read her Kobo books on the Kindle though, will she? Or have they finally given up and agreed to support ePub with the PaperWhite?

			lol. Yeah, this is my problem... though probably not so massive. But I just hate to give Kobo more of my money... I hadn't had this reader a full year and it did not get abused. I need to research really, but after having the Glo it's gotta have a built-in light!

 There should be no reason to limit yourself to particular retailers because of the format available. calibre and alf allow you to conver epubs to KF8/mobi or KF8/mobi to epub. Or to pdf or html or whatever format your heart desires.   | |

			Blossom, if I recall, you like to read your books with a space between paragraphs, don't you? I do, but my Paperwhite will not display them like that, even after I have formatted them with Calibre. Are you able to get the text to appear the way you want on your PW? I was so annoyed with this, I quit using it. (Now I have koreader and can read epubs, and that way it does display the text with spacing as I have formatted it.) I am very interested in how your text is displayed on your PW.
