  1. (via Kindle Touch: Touchscreen e-Reader with Wi-Fi, 6” E Ink Display)

    I’m in love with my Kindle, and I don’t even have the Touch version.

    This newish offering, the Kindle Touch, upgrades upon the old one in many ways, including a streamlined frame, touch capabilities and improved contrast.

    The one thing I think I will miss is that on my old Kindle Keyboard 3G, I can get unlimited net from most places in the world. It’s slow, and it uses the old, experimental browser included on board, but it has gotten me out of more than one bad, WiFi-less situation while traveling (being able to send an email or tweet from a layover location, for example), and the new models only allow access for purchasing new books from the Amazon catalog.

    It’s a little qualm, I know, but it’s the main reason I’m resisting picking up a Touch for the moment. That may change in the next few months, however, because I LOVE reading on these devices.
