I'm on my 3rd Kindle, the first being the one with the keyboard, then 2 Kindle Fires, the Ipad, the Zoom, and an Iphone plus 2 laptops. Use the Kindles daily, the Ipad and Zoom rarely. Love the Kindles, down load free books from several sites, buy at discounted price often, check out e-books from the library occasionally. No longer have shelves of books everywhere. Would be lost without the Kindle, take it everywhere with me, small, backlight so I can read at night in bed w/o lighting, easy to hold, turns itself off when closed, holds zillions of books, recharges quickly, download on Wi-Fi at home so need no data plans. No cons, highly recommend Kindle.
