Kindle Paperwhite: For Books, Not Your Soulmate
Amazon’s Kindle lineup is sticking to what it does best: being boringly brilliant ebook readers.

Meanwhile, the Kindle Paperwhite is now sold for a bargain $124.99 with waterproofing and a bigger screen—because why not get soaked reading misery in style?
