| Bottom line | With an excellent built-in light and Amazon's best-in-class e-book selection, the
Kindle Paperwhite rises to the top of the e-reader pack. | The Sony PRS-T2 is a perfectly good touch-screen e-reader whose only sin is that it doesn't have any competitive advantages over Amazon's and Barnes & Noble's e-readers. | Though it has a hard time competing with Apple's
iPad in terms of functionality, the less-expensive 2010 Kindle DX will appeal to those looking for a large, dedicated e-reader with an e-ink display. | Although it has all the positive attributes typically associated with a Kindle device, the arrival of Apple's
iPad seriously affects the Kindle DX's viability unless Amazon lowers its price by at least $100. | The pricey
Kindle DX offers improvements over the Kindle 2, but its larger chassis has its pluses and minuses. |
