I mentioned at the outset that Amazon didn't do much upgrading with the third-gen Paperwhite, but the truth is, it didn't have to. The first-gen Paperwhite was a great e-reader, and so was the second. This third-gen becomes just another iteration that mak...

The 2015 Paperwhite is a very capable e-reader, and like the best e-readers, what it does best is get out of the way and let you read. If you're already in the Kindle camp and weighing this up against the more expensive $299 Kindle Voyage, save yourself t...
Abstract: Chart: Reading is a beautiful and relaxing pastime, but it's not exactly portable, especially if you're a commuter. If you don't like lugging dozens of paperbacks around, why not consider an e-reader? Here are the five best e-readers available in Australi...
