Even better, the new Kindle can hold a charge up to 30 days with the wireless function off, with wireless on the Kindle will hold it's charge up to 10 days.

It's small design still with a 6" screen allows you to hold it comfortably for as long as you would like to read. The Kindle is lighter than most paperbacks and thinner than a magazine. The page turners are located on the left and right side for easy turning no matter which hand you prefer to use. The soft back cover makes it easier to hold for comfort and does not generate heat.
