Kindle Paperwhite 3G
Price £169
Pros: The same as the standard Paperwhite with the added bonus of 3G, making it easier to make use of Amazon's cloud storage and the limit of 2GB storage is therefore less of an issue.
Cons: 2GB is still not an awful lot of storage space, especially if you like to read PDF files or magazines. Cloud storage is great, but you can't access it if you're on the tube or on a plane - two of the places where you'd likely want to use your Kindle. It's disappointing that there isn't a way to expand the memory via a microSD card or similar.
Ideal for: People who travel a lot or who really want to be able to browse the store and purchase new eBooks directly to their device wherever they are.
Suggested eBooks: Later this month, Amazon is launching a book lending service for Amazon Prime customers, where you'll be able to 'borrow' one electronic book a month for free from a range of 200,000 titles. These titles will include J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series and other current and former Kindle store bestsellers.

This article fails in so many ways....
2GB holds a lot of books.
You list the Kindle Fire HD at being the most expensive Kindle when it is in fact the Kindle Paperwhite 3G which you correctly identify as £169.
You don't list the fact the keyboard has 3G as a pro, it also has twice the storage space of the Paperwhite or basic.
The picture is wrong for the Paperwhite - the light guide is part of the screen not a pull out light.
If you're not going to do it right why bother at all?

What a terrible article, half of the pictures are of the wrong kindle. It has completely missed the point of an E-ink screen and most of the pros and cons are completely wrong! 2GB of storage is huge for ebook, several thousand books!
All in all and absolutely terrible article, it might help if the author had even a tiny bit of knowledge about ebooks!
Poor!
