I am very, very picky about Kindles. Currently, I've been using a Kindle Voyage, which remains one of my favorite gadgets ever (it narrowly beat out the first-generation Oasis since the Voyage fits comfortably in the back pocket of my jeans). 

Today, Amazon announced a new Paperwhite — one that is essentially the Voyage, but with more storage, a better design, and WATERPROOFING. It is essentially the Ur-Kindle, the Kindle that all other Kindles have aspired to be since the beginning. I will probably buy one.

But seriously... would it have killed Amazon to include some kind of physical (or even  capacitive) page turn buttons?
