I like both of these but I think that the Kindle just edges it. Having said that I've haven't seen the Nook.
Really happy with my Paperwhite. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Yes, totally happy with mine too, using mine in just a pouch case as didn't want added weight of the Bookcover case.
The case is v good though as it has the same "open to wake/close to sleep" function that the iPad cases do.
I read the Kindle has a function to read back to you. Is that a function on most of the ebooks or a rare few?
My old Kindle does that, so would imagine the rest do.
I have the cash from the missus to get my Kindle Paperwhite, just need to find one in stock!
Huzzah! Picked up my chrimble pressie from the Missus data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
She allowed me to turn it on as well and then stole it away from me data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
The old Kindles do it. I don't think the paperwhite does it as it has no speakers or headphone socket.
The new budget one doesn't either, as far as I can tell on mine.
There is some great information here on jailbreaking your PaperWhite.
It allows further functionality including managing collections better and open SSH
I haven't read my Kindle for a while - had a stack of real books to get through! So I charged it up and started organising my library once more (Just finished the first Stephen Deas Dragon book) and once the Paperwhite was charged, I found that the light had bled so it looked like I had four faint dirty fingerprints spaced across the bottom of the screen data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
I spoke to Amazon via web chat last night, and after some diagnostic tests a new one is on its way Friday, hurrah! data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
