I have two Kindles that I use... and I like the technology a lot. One is a paperwhite like you gave your mom, the other is a Fire, which is more akin to an iPad. I prefer the Fire for indoor use, because it's big enough to use in a landscape mode - it's nice having two 'pages' open, more like a real book. The problem is, the screen glare when used outdoors (even on overcast days) renders it unusable, so then I bring out the paperwhite and live with the single page view.
