Buying a new kindle/e-reader/tablet/whatever

[MiskWisk]

Right, about 5-10 minutes ago my old kindle apparently gave up the ghost and started showing a load of multicoloured lines vertically down the screen while the rest bugged out. This has persisted through resets and according to what help I can find means it is basically bricked at this point.

So, barring anyone possibly knowing how to fix it, I'm now in the market for a new one. So, question time, anyone know what is good on the market. I mostly used mine for light internet browsing, reading, and as an alarm clock.

I like my Nvidia Shield a great deal. Good build quality, great speakers, pretty fast, and if you have an Nvidia GPU you can take advantage of their game streaming. But all that aside, it's a tablet that will do everything you want it to for $200 and have much better specs than most others that cost 2-3 times as much.

I love my Kindle Paperwhite; it does exactly what I want it to, and nothing more or less.
