The $69 base version of the Amazon Kindle is even better than before, thanks to a price drop and a slightly improved display.

The Amazon Kindle 2012 doesn't change all that much in the blueprint laid down by the excellent not-touch 2011 model. It's light, it's affordable and it's better-made than many an entry-level ereader.
