I have a kindle keyboard (2012) and I gave up on amazon a long time ago, now I just convert-upload epubs to it using calibre and read.

More than a decade on, and it's still one of the best kindles ever made, in my opinion.

You had physical buttons instead of a fiddly touch-screen, you could have music, have it read to you, and also go on the internet.

Plus it's old enough it supports a bunch of formats, and registers as a mass storage device to a computer, so anything can use it.

I mean it is very slow, and there are much newer readers supporting open formats. Pocketbook. Even Kobo is alright.

But "Best Kindle", is any jailbroken one I guess
