I absolutely love my Kindle PaperWhite. I had the original Kindle before that and didn't think I'd like the light that is in the PaperWhite, but I love it. I can read it in sunlight, but when I go to bed at night I can read with the lights out.

I have the Kindle Fire 2, we have a lovely pond and I often sit out by it and read in bright Colorado light!

My Kindle Keyboard read great in bright sunlight. I just returned from vacationing at the lake and did a lot of reading outside and playing Scrabble on it.

I love my Kindle Fire. I've never had a problem whatsoever and find there are many many free books available for it.

My son bought me a sony e-reader and it is wonderful. He put a small reading light and a cover on it. It isn't backlit so it is like reading from a real book. And it also doesn't give of a glow that disturbs people close by. It doesn't have color or graphics and I don't know if sony makes a more sophisticated model but I don't need all that anyway.

Yes that's what I have, the older kindle. I use mine every day and have no problems. I didn't think I'd like it and now wouldn't want to be without it.

Hubby and I both have the original Kindle and we love them. We only download free books, and there are soooo many sites to get them from. We each have over 1,000 books downloaded! I don't think I'll live long enough to read them all, especially since we are constantly reading, deleting, and downloading! We would not want to be without them.
