Could you explain this? The only thing that's been holding me up from preordering a K3 is that I'm not sure if I want white or graphite.
- ghshephard 16y agoI said Graphite, but I really meant "K3" - the K3 has a $60 cover has support for night reading. http://www.amazon.com/Lighted-Leather-Chocolate-Display-Generation/dp/B003DZ166G http://www.amazon.com/Lighted-Leather-Chocolate-Display-Gene... I went through three (3) night lights on my Kindle(s), and was never happy with any of them. Glare was really annoying, which is tragic if you think about how well the Kindle normally handles (sunlight) Glare. Here's hoping the Amazon Night Light solves it. Kindle + iPad have really inspired me to start reading again.
- jackowayed 16y agoSo you would strongly suggest that I get that case? (At least after waiting a little while and seeing positive reviews)
- chrisbolt 16y agoIt's kind of crazy that the cover for a $140 kindle costs $60.
- jackowayed 16y agoIt has a builtin light (and some magic so that the Kindle powers the light), but still, yeah. I'm looking at getting upsold by $110 on a $139 device. First it was "well, $50 for 3G everywhere forever is probably worth it". Now it's "$60 to keep my now-$189 Kindle nice and to have a light that doesn't suck is probably worth it."
- spydez 16y agoHow do you know this light doesn't suck? So far you're 3 for 3 on sucky lights, and you haven't tried this new one. If there's a review for the new one that says, "This doesn't suck," then there's probably a review for your previous 3 that says the same thing...
