I'm getting the 3G Paperwhite as well as the $299 8.9" Kindle Fire HD. I wish there was going to be a 32GB wifi only Kindle HD. Personally, it isn't worth an extra $250 dollars ($200 higher price + $50 for 1st year of 4G) to get the extra 16GB of memory. It's sad, though...I would *willingly* pay an extra $50 (and possibly even $100) to get a 32GB wifi version.

Kindle Paperwhite wifi, in about 5 months.

The only thing that irks me about it is the lack of physical page turn buttons. So I have a question for Kindle Touch owners: the on-screen buttons good enough for you? Or do you yearn for something more?

I'm probably going to get the wifi only Paperwhite. But I'll wait and see some reviews first.

I really thought I'd hate the Touch not having buttons. I don't miss them even a little bit.

I'm getting the Kindle Paperwhite. $119 is an excellent price without Ads. It has everything I want. More fonts, Covers and a built in light. It weighs the same as the Touch but is thinner because it uses a Capacitive screen. The black bezel is awesome!

The time left feature is odd to me. I rather know the percentage I am at. I hope they keep that and don't get rid of it for the new one.

If it is true unlimited 3G, no restrictions, then I will get the 3G model.
I doubt it.

But of course, it wasn't specified.
It isn't. read the small print in the amended previous agreements.
50 Mb a month now I believe. Probably be the same again.

The 1st of October for a release date or so they say - I would love to get a UK release date but meh.

x + n = who knows.

$1.99 per part, at least on the initial batch.
