E-reader Thread

What dpi is enough for an e-reader if I only plan on reading text/books? 2nd gen Paperwhites are going for ~$70 used in the country I'm in whereas the newer models are ~$120. Is there some enormous difference between 212 and 300 dpi? Aside from the difference in dpi is there any other reason why I would spring for the pricier ones.

I'm using a Kindle 4 (167 dpi, 800x600). Second hand ones are extremely cheap and it's perfect for books.
My only complaints are:
>the dpi is too low for manga/comics (not a problem in your case)
>because I'm using Koreader (which relies on long pressing on your touch screen to set defaults like fonts and margins) and the Kindle 4 has no touchscreen, I had to extensively search through and fiddle with the configuration files to setup my preferred layout - and this didn't work for all settings, so I still have to spend some time changing settings each time I start a new book.

It really depends how autistic you are. I've got 313 dpi cybook hd muse because I wanted text as sharp as normal books. Turend out it's even sharper than some of my books (compered with magnifying glass) so I'm satisfied.
Just make sure it has backlight. It's great.

Oh, and because it has no light I had to get one of these cases (this particular model isn't too great, sadly - it only manages to light up 2/3rds of the page).
