I still use my Kindle 4, because it's the last version to have buttons, without having a crazy form factor. It was also $100, which is in the absolute max a Kindle should cost. None of the later version have peeked my interest, because I don't gain anything, compared to my 12 year old Kindle. Prices have gone up, but I've lost the physical button, so I pay more to lose a feature I really like. Amazon could have more or less stopped Kindle development in 2012 and just worked on reducing the cost ever since and it would still have been a great e-reader.
