Now that Amazon has introduced its new line of e-readers, will anyone be upgrading? I love my Kindle Keyboard, but I have to say the Paperwhite is intriguing.

I love my kindle keyboard and it's still going strong after almost 3 years... knock on wood. but when I have to replace it, I might go with the paperwhite. It's pretty cool looking! And I read with a booklight in bed, anyway, because there isn't good light on my side of the bed.
I'm a Nook girl. A pretty new Kindle isn't going to change that. I'd have to see a Nook that was a huge improvement over my Simple Touch to entice me to upgrade ereaders again.
I'm definitely upgrading to the Paperwhite. My moms been eyeing my Kindle touch and my birthday happens to be in Oct so I'm pretty sure I know what my husband will get:) I will have to check it out in person first just to make sure I like it though.
How is this different from the Kindle app on the iPad? I can read mine in the dark...
I believe the iPad is backlit, and the Paperwhite is frontlit.
I'm with PPs. My 2 year old Kindle Keyboard (Bemis) is still going strong and making me happy. When I need a new one, I'll probably get the Paperwhite. I really liked the Glowlight Nook, but I could never ever leave Amazon for B&N.
