dat Kindle Voyager :drool :drool :drool

Edit: I'm still rocking my Gen 1 Nook, but I'm tempted to switch teams for this. Just want to see how the screen looks IRL first.

I have a paperwhite, I can see no reason to trade up on a working e-reader.

I'm not getting one, I still like my paperwhite fine and $200 is too much, but I do dig those haptic side sensors.

I waaaant but I can't justify 200 bucks. I guess this'll be the first year I don't get a new Kindle.

Voyage is gorgeous but hard to justify over my perfectly functional, still very nice Paperwhite

maybe if I see one in person I'll whistle a different tune~
