I have the DX and PW2, I would choose the PW2 any day of the week and twice on Sunday. I love how light it is and how easy it is to read with the lights off. It is far more portable and much, much easier to use.
If I have a larger document that I want to read on a larger screen, I can read it on my iPad. The weight difference is not all that great. |

I couldn't vote. I read on my Nexus 7.2. Right now I'm using the Mantano app. I use to use a Sony PRS-350 but I can't see going back to an e-ink device. The screen resolution on the Nexus tablet is much better than any e-ink device on the market. It can get washed out in sunlight but since I almost never read outdoors anymore, this isn't a real concern for me.

The good news for folks who don't care for the lit screens is that the light intensity of the Paperwhites can be set so low that, except in a completely darkened room, it's not noticeable.

The problem with that is it feels like your reading through a window if the light is too down.
