I'd like to get some kind of Kindle for one-handed reading while breastfeeding. I'll probably also take it on holiday to expand my choice, alongside some actual books. I don't expect it to be my main way of reading as I love real books too much.
As I see it, pros of a Paperwhite are: water resistant for reading by the pool/in the bath; better screen for reading in sunlight.
Pros of getting an Amazon Fire are that it would also function as a second tablet, which I imagine would come in useful once DD is old enough to be distracted with a bit of screen time eg. on holiday. Would also give me the option to use something like Borrowbook to get e-books from the library.
WWYD? Has anyone used a Fire as an occasional e-reader? Is the screen ok for this or is it unbearable/is it useable at all on a sunny day?
