Recently I bought a Kindle. I had never used the Amazon ecosystem for ebooks, because I was using Kobo (a Canadian alternative to Kindle). I thought I should do more reading lately; perhaps having a nice ebook reader, the Paperwhite, would help me get started. But ironically, the ebook reader wasn’t what I was most happy with — rather, it’s the ecosystem. The little things made a lot of difference in usability, setting it apart from the Kobo.
