While this is a bespoke reader, I like the price point of the $120 (often cheaper with frequent sales) Paperwhite. It's always with me, and relatively inexpensive and durable enough where I don't bulk it up with a case or sleeve. Either $289 seems overkill for a single purpose device, or Amazon screwed up and provided too much value in the Paperwhite.
