Paperwhite or Voyage?

I want to get myself a kindle. It will mainly be for bedtime reading in a dark room. I also like to read outside on a nice day.

Comparing the two, it sounds like the voyager would be best. I would be interested to hear what other users think, especially those who have used both.

No idea about the Voyager but the Paperwhite is brilliant...especially for reading in bed.

Thanks rembrandtsrockchick.
I never thought I would get one as I love books and browsing in bookshops. Having just got back into reading with a vengeance, a kindle will save me money and stop DH complaaining about the lamp being too bright every night Grin

We live on a boat and have very limited book space. As we have no TV I read A LOT! The Kindle is the answer to lack of bookshelf space.

I have a Paperwhite and I love it, BUT I don't like having to swipe to turn the page, I would prefer a press-turn like I had on my Kindle Keyboard (the Paperwhite is still better overall because of the lit screen). So the next time I need to update my Kindle I think I will buy a Voyage.

I have a first generation Paperwhite which is still going strong and I love it. I have looked into the Voyage, but I am not sure that it is that much better based on the reviews I have seen.

Paperwhite fine for bed reading and day reading - you can change the brightness.

Thanks everyone. I may just go with the paperwhite then.
