Kindle 3 First Impressions

Marco Arment:

The screen has been significantly improved, and there are subtle layout differences…Note how the removal of the top bar and elimination of the margin below the progress indicator has added space for three more lines of text per page at this font size. There’s a new font chooser as well: on most content, you can select between “regular”, “condensed”, and “sans serif”…I still prefer the “regular”. There’s also a line-height option, but the default (pictured) is the largest, and the two smaller settings decrease legibility too much for my taste.
