Q. I am considering purchasing the Kindle Paperwhite cover, which has an auto-sleep/-wake function. How does this work?
A. Accroding to the reviews its good. Auto wake and sleep works like it should... device turns on when you open the case while turns off when you close the case.

Do you need a light to read a kindle Paperwhite?
Q. I was wondering if the Kindle Paperwhite produces any type of light, or is it similar to the original Kindle in the sense that I need a light to read it.
A. Actually the selling point of the Kindle Paperwhite is that it has built in light, so you don't need to have external light even you read in the dark. In the past, for the older Kindle models you need an external light or a lighted cover. It's much more convenient now with the light built-in. Here you can see a video showing the lighting on this new Kindle:

The Kindle Paperwhite is really popular now, and I think it's the last chance to order now if you want to get it before Christmas. The sales page said it's expected to ship on 21st December, if you order now (it said 17th December a few days ago...)
Hope this helps.
Does the Otterbox for the Kindle Fire also fit the Kindle Paperwhite?
Q. I'm asking for a Kindle Paperwhite for Christmas and since I tend to drop things and break them, I also wanted an Otterbox. I know they make one for the Kindle Fire but I wasn't sure if it fit the Paperwhite or not.
A. No, I do not believe it does. The kindle paperwhite and kindle fire are two toatlly different devices that have different functions and are different sizes different weights and have different screen sizes as well. They have other cases for the paperwhite, they probably aren't as protective as an otterbox but they're better than nothing. Look on amazon for the cases, I don't think they're sold in stores as of now. Good luck!
