SO UM. Your old Kindle. I have a few questions! I'm not in the market for a tablet, but I do think the e-ink is cool and looking on amazon, those prices are right:

a) Regular? Touch? Keyboard? and do you have an argument in favor of any of those?

b) "special offers" - offensively irritating or unobtrusive? also, do they ever go away or are they there for eternity?

I've read cnet, obviously, but it's always nice to get a personal opinion!
