		blutack on Nov 17, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Is Kindle Paperwhite really worth it? You can also get a Nook Glowlight in the UK for £49, less than half the price of the Paperwhite. Spec isn't as good but it does support standard epub books. http://www.nook.com/gb/tablets/nook-simple-touch-glowlight

i've seen both (the new paperwhite and the 2012 glow) side to side and for me kindle's backlight crushes the nook's. your mileage may vary.

...also half price sounds like a really nice deal!
