>Also about to pop for a $139 Kindle Wi-fi. 3rd gen, graphite etc and price hit the sweet spot.

Mine just arrived on Thursday. I spent the extra $50 and got both 3G and Wi-fi. I already had the previous Kindle model, but the new one seemed a lot better. And it is ... it's smaller and lighter, and the better contrast is definitely noticeable. So far, I'm glad I got it. You'll love it!
