On the other hand, I do like the appearance of the Fire's Kindle app in that the screen is enough bigger that justification works much better. Amazon also puts the book title as a header all the time, not just when you have the menu up, which is nice. And for nonfiction books with illustrations, a color LCD screen is a plus. It's too big to carry all the time in my purse, though, so I will definitely keep the Paperwhite. The Fire can do the read-aloud thing, but sadly, you can't email Word files to it, so I will still hold on to the Kindle Keyboard (aka Kindle 3) for proofing my own manuscripts.
