I honestly can't imagine a more perfect Kindle than the wifi Kindle Paperwhite. I also love the design of the new cases (and I'm so thrilled they have an orange one again.) The storage is a non-issue for me. I can't imagine a day when I would have the need for more than 1,000 books on my Kindle.

I was planning on buying one of the rumored iPad Minis when they release this fall, but the new Kindle Fire has definitely grabbed my attention. Price point will be the deciding factor there.

I'm very much looking forward to receiving the Paperwhite primarily for the new and improved resolution, contrast and whiter background. The integrated lighting is the icing on the cake. The new software features are impressive too.

The new Fires look good as well. I've also placed a pre-order for one of the 8.9" models with the option to retract it until the first reviews are out.

Would have been nice if they included the paperwhite display on the button version of the Kindle. The new Paperwhite looks hot, but I still would miss my buttons.

Actually, I guess there is one thing I would change about the paperwhite. I'm definitely going to miss the home button. I wish they carried that over from the Touch.

Feel the same. Love my K3, think I would go crazyer using the "touch" screen with grubby,sweaty fingers instead of page buttons.
But let's see. I'll wait for reviews, real live testing. Might end up buying one just in case K3 dies. Would have to decide which books NOT to have on the PW - have 1600 books on K3.
Cheers,
