I think the basic Kindle would be perfect for most people, especially since the latest generation comes with built-in front light. That used to be the biggest difference between Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite.

But I'm glad you found something for your niece! smile.gif

Kobo is alright. The ebook format doesn't really matter unless you pay for ebooks since you can just convert them via Calibre. By the way, anyone got the Paperwhite 4? Is it any faster than previous gens? hmm.gif

Eh? I'm using my Malaysian account and bought several ebooks without problem. It's just one-click to purchase.

Kindle is good on the eyes, compared with traditional tablets or laptop. Lighter, too, though a bit small. I think Amazon can deliver it to Malaysia, so you can check online for the pricing (they would include approximate tax/customs fee, too). I haven't bought the kindle, but I've done some Amazon shopping before, ranging from books (physical books, not ebook), it stuff, and what not. Didn't encounter any issue.

Just realised something...
It turns out I have bought a kindle before. However, not long after, I managed to leave it in the car, which was parked under the sun in summer, in middle east. The screen stopped working 70% on the right side when I came back.
Note that temp in middle east in summer can reach 50C under the shadows.
I once left a can of sprite unopened. I came back to see it had already exploded, though thankfully no damage to the interior. And everything was dried out already. Leaving my car smelling kind of lemon/lime fresh.

Another option would be the PocketBook Touch HD 3. It's my preferred ebook reader and it's a fantastic alternative to the Kindle Paperwhite 4. It supports 20+ ebook formats (including comics) and has a smart light system that allows you to control the warmth of the front light (yellow light).

You can get it from us or from your preferred seller smile.gif
