When can we expect to see a real thread about real reviews? User reviews are so much better than schlock they call "hands-on" reviews at these magazines. I learned nothing new about the K3 from any of them! In fact, I may have gotten dumber for reading them.

Can't wait to see MRers doing real real reviews!

Welcome, tommyr. You will love your kindle, and you have found the right place to learn to do more with it. If you have any questions, you will find this is a very helpful bunch.

Interesting. This seems to kind of confirm my suspicions that the pearl screen isn't going to be anything earth-shattering. Better, yes. 50% better, maybe, but it doesn't look quite that much in the videos I've seen of this or the dxg

That was a good video, but with regards to the refresh rate, I didnt actually notice all that much difference.

I notice with the K3 the title bar disappears when he turns the page. So I assume that bar (with the book title, battery and wifi connectivity display) is only displayed when you initially open the ebook.

According to a number of anxious people out there, "When will my Kindle arrive?"
