I've been kicking around the idea of getting one of these, thanks for your review.

One of the main reasons I'm looking into an e-reader is that my gf and I have very different sleep schedules and I like to read before I go to sleep, but if she is already asleep I don't want to turn the light on to read a book. So my question is, would reading from this in an otherwise dark room be A. possible? and B. enjoyable? I know very little about e-readers so sorry if it is a dumb question.


Reading from a dark room is definitely possible. Its not really a huge issue for me to read in the dark since there are options to change the brightness.



If you are looking just to read on it I still think I would rather get a regular kindle with a case w/ built in light.

For anyone wondering if you can watch GSL Vods in your Kindle Fire. The default browser for the Fire won't play the videos, but I found this optional web browser you can download from the amazon app store. So far it works great to catch up with the GSL vods.

I've been thinking of getting a kindle for a while now since I have a ton of books on my computer and it would be nice to have it on the go. Unfortunately Amazon UK only has the basic one & the 3G one available. I still can't decide on which to get though.
