Rocking the Kindle Keyboard 3G, have been since 2011. See no point in upgrading until I ruin this one.

I usually have it on the 4th largest font. People who use small fonts are pseudo intellectuals.

Since it only has three fonts, I have it on "regular".

What the public opinion on using e-readers in public?

Ive had a kindle for like 4 or 5 years and ive always been too scared to use it in public, but I just moved into a house with a lot of roomates, and have been going to a library to read, would people kek at me?
The library is mostly old people and some homeless

I have an older kindle, the ones with keyboards on them.

Have there been any improvements worth upgrading for or should I stick to my old kindle?

It wasn't so much a book but rather pic related. I basically had read nothing but Harry Potter and the odd Pratchett. Then I was given one of these as a Christmas gift, back in '08.

Best gift I've ever received. Reading is pretty much my number 1 hobby now.

I've been using the same Kindle (third generation) for 4 years now. Definitely worth the money since it was about the price of 10 paperbacks and I've read far more books than that on it and I didn't pay for any of them (either pirated or public domain).

Buying ebooks is stupid though. If I'm paying for something, I want the real thing. If you're anti-piracy or you're reading lots of stuff that's hard to find or that's formatted in a way not suited for e-readers (e.g. lots of graphics, lots of footnotes/endnotes) then it's probably not worth it.
