If you’re thinking of buying a digital reader in the next six months and you’re wondering what device to get, here’s a handy chart that compares six of the most highly publicized models side by side.

It’s also likely that the feature set on several of these models may change in the coming months, but PaidContent.org says it will update the chart as needed.
