Amazon Kindle Paperwhite sells out

Amazon has already sold out of their latest e-reader, the Kindle Paperwhite.
The device's page now reads "four to six weeks delivery," meaning you will have to wait over a month to receive your e-reader after ordering.

Paperwhite devices offer a higher resolution screen than previous models, as well as a much more responsive touch interface and a lighting system for dim-light or no-light situations. Navigation of the interface and all touch elements are fast and lack any lag like some previous models.

So far, the Paperwhite has been a critical success, with most major outlets calling it hands down the best dedicated e-reading device, ever.

It is clear Amazon has another hit on their hands. Now they just need to produce more of them.
