    Just use Calibre.

    In fact, even if you're not using epub files, use calibre. Much better than Amazon's kindle interface. MUCH.

      Hows the format retention? I use Calibre for my current Ereader but was worried about conversion issues (going from one format to another and loosing its formatting etc)

      Have you used it at all?

        I use it for my entire library.

        Absolutely no conversion issues when converting to a .mobi file type. Only time I've experienced some issues is html to .mobi or pdf to .mobi, and even then its mostly on symbols or special characters/punctuation.

  You can get the ad free Paperwhite Wifi straight from Amazon for US$151 delivered (AUD$145). Takes about a week to arrive. No middlemen to worry about, no freight forwarding, no issues.

  Not a bargain IMO.

  edit: added link.

    Am I the only one who read it as "paperweight"?

  depends on your preference. most people go for tablet computers for readimg these days.

  i love kindles cos they are easy on my eyes, battery charge lasts a long time, theres no distractions like games, social apps and stuff so i am more likely to finish a book on my kindle.

    I agree with you, but after so many years and models for the non-paperwhite (not to mention all the other brands about), there's bugger all reason to upgrade.

  I got two when my old kindle keyboard broke think I paid $150ish from Amazon and $146from dse (pre order) so not that special if you look around as pointed out direct from Amazon is still only around $156.

  Solid product and I wouldn't be too concerned with some users issues re the lighting so long as you realise this is an eReader and not a tab

  Kobo Glo is $138 at ht if anyone's interested in the alternative to the paperwhite.
