Out of all the new offerings from Amazon on the new Kindle line up I’m most excited about the Kindle Paperwhite. Besides the new display with the “patented built in light”, I am excited about the new “Time to Read” feature:

Time to Read is a new feature for Kindle Paperwhite that helps you know how long it will take to finish a chapter or book. Time to Read is personalized based on your reading speed and is constantly updated as your speed and habits change. With Time to Read, it’s never been easier to decide when to start a new chapter or finish the chapter you’re reading.

The larger Fire HD is looking nice too. I said I was going to wait until the first of the year to upgrade my Kindles. Who want to take bets on whether or not of cave it and buy? :)

  1. Hm, what is the Paperwhite exactly? Is it backlit? I’m still a bit unfamiliar with this type of Kindle…

  2. My trusty K2 is finally starting to show it’s age (after 2.5 years of heavy service). I’d been eying the Kindle Touch, but then decided to wait for the new ones. Now I’m very glad I waited. I just pre-ordered the Paperwhite 3G. Black case + built-in lights + touchscreen is making me very happy. The time to read function should be pretty trippy too.

  3. I would love to get a Kindle Paperwhite but my current Kindle Touch is running like a champ. Maybe I should write Santa….

  4. I pre-ordered the Paperwhite…..I have no control. :/

  5. I bought the Kindle Fire last year and I think I’ve used t once. It irritates me that I can’t organize my shelves.
    I use my iPad all the time. i know the screen bothers a lot of people but I love it.

  6. YAY! I finally did it. I preordered mine. Thanks for the links. :)
