I just got the X3 and i love it for all those reasons. I have a card holder wallet that it fits right onto so I have it everywhere. I am reading so much more instead of checking my phone to fill random down time. I wondered if the small size would be annoying to read on, but since page turns are so quick and easy, I have zero issues. I'm actually starting to prefer it to my Kindle for longer reading because it is so light, I can hold it longer or in more random reading positions without any hand fatigue (as minor as that is with a Kindle).
