Yes. They all provide Kindle's mobi format. Plus Kindle can use PDF.

I use Kindle. Tablets are only useful if you want full color.

@ambarishrh Kindle is known for daylight reading. Have a crazy long battery life compared to tablets (days between charging versus hours).
Price point is attractive.

With the Paperwhite edition it is now my favorite daylight, as well as darkness, reader. The backlighting is awesome.

I don't think it will be dead for probably another 10+ years, but it will get there eventually.
I've been thinking about getting my wife a paperwhite Kindle. She had a Gen 1 (stepped on and broke) and now has a gen 3 no keyboard that she loves.

It is really amazing how much happier the PaperWhite makes me compared to seller versions. It's really just awesome. The backlight, the touchscreen... They really come together to make it super usable.
And the battery easily lasts a month.
I use my Kindle to read to the kids every night too.

Yesterday night I got an iPad mini retina
Initially after @scottalanmiller post I was almost ready to get a kindle but then thought of my next exams to take this year. We have a corporate cbt nuggets which I use extensively and so decided to get iPad which could be used for both reading and cbt plus you know!
Woke up very early and playing around with the new toy. ML looks great on iPad too

Nice unit. I plan on trading my iPad 2 for an iPad Mini Retina later this year. We use those for the office. Kindle is just for reading.
