$179 for KPW 3G is real expensive. I wonder how popular it will be and if it'll be out of price range.

Yes, I thought that was rather expensive also. I didn't catch if that was without special offers. Can anyone confirm?

Does it have more fonts than the traditional two-fonts with three choices? I watched a live blog and they never even mentioned fonts in the blog.

Yes, the special offers were a bust. I think it was chicken-poohish of Amazon to sell them then stop offering real specials. The SO got replaced with totally worthless local deals. They should turn off the SO from our SO models without charging us, but I know they won't.

How does the Paperwhite's thickness and weight compare to the current models?

Yes remember those fonts we talked about in one of your threads? Well you was right! We get Palatino, Baskerville and Futura added to our list of choices.

The new K4 has these fonts too.

Check out The Verge live blog. They posted ton of screenshots. It was like you was there while it was happening. You will have to do alot of scrolling but it answers all those questions.

Cool! Yes, Amazon included those in the latest Kindle Previewer and we speculated if they would be included in a future reader model. I'll have to research the Paperwhite screen to see if it is good. Hopefully Amazon will post the new models on their website soon.

I hope they keep selling the K3 Keyboard models. A lot of people still prefer them over the newer models.

I so love Palatino. It's one of my Favorite fonts. I think this is good choice. Baskerville as we all know it one of the old type fonts and Futura is a thinner font. So it's nice to have more variety. Can you tell I am a font addict.

They seem to be dragging their feet. Hopefully soon, not that I plan to buy one, but I'm definitely curious about the specs.
