Which Kindle to buy?

Here is a table to make a decision to buy a Kindle you desire. I have confined myself here with e-ink Kindle. Sometime later I’ll do a similar list for Kindle Fire.

If you’ve any question, please drop a line in the comment area. If I miss anything let me know. I’ll add that later.
