The differences here are only skin deep. Amazon's $69 Kindle runs exactly as the previous model but has a newer black aesthetic that more closely aligns itself to the Kindle Paperwhite. The selling point, of course, isn't so much additional features as it is the barrier of entry and convenience of slipping into a bag / pursed / oversized pocket. For those inclined to see the iterative design tweaks, we're here for you. Gallery is below. You're welcome.
